SOCIAL CARE

Are you tired of the usual approach to social care support that just doesn't quite fit for autistic individuals? We understand that traditional methods, like direct payments, may not meet the unique needs and preferences of autistic people. That's why we offer a range of autism specific social care support options that are tailored to ensure a comfortable and fulfilling experience for everyone involved.

Here's why our autism specific social care support is the best choice:

Going Beyond Direct Payments: Direct payments can leave autistic individuals feeling different or out of place. We recognise this and have developed a more inclusive and empowering approach. Our aim is to create an environment where autistic individuals feel valued, supported, and understood. We take into account the specific challenges and strengths associated with autism to provide a truly personalised experience.

Flexible Support Options: We understand that one-to-one support with a Personal Assistant may not be the right fit for everyone. While some individuals thrive in this setting, others may find it intense or awkward. That's why we offer a range of support options, including both one-to-one and group sessions. You can choose the format that feels most comfortable and suits your needs.

Skills-Focused Group Sessions: Our group sessions are designed to address specific skills, such as cooking, ironing, self-care, and overall wellbeing. These sessions provide a supportive and structured environment where individuals can learn and practice essential life skills alongside their peers. It's not just about acquiring skills; it's also an opportunity to connect with others who share similar challenges and experiences.

Social Connections and Peer Support: Loneliness and isolation can be significant challenges for autistic individuals. That's why we offer a friendly and inclusive space where you can come, have a drink, chat, and meet others facing similar challenges. Building connections and establishing meaningful relationships with like-minded individuals can provide a sense of belonging and support on your journey.

Home Visits and Bridging Gaps: We understand that some individuals may find it difficult to leave their homes or may be in hospital approaching discharge. Our dedicated team is here to support you in the comfort of your own home or during the transition period after hospitalisation. We can provide personalised social care support, helping bridge the gaps and ensure a smooth transition back to community life.

By choosing our autism specific social care support, you can expect:

- A supportive and inclusive environment that honours your unique needs.

- Tailored support options, whether it's one-to-one or group sessions.

- Opportunities to develop essential life skills in a structured and nurturing setting.

- Social connections, peer support, and a sense of belonging.

- Home visits and assistance during transitions for those in isolation or hospital settings.

At The Autism Wellbeing Project, we're committed to empowering autistic individuals and promoting their overall wellbeing. Our autism specific social care support goes beyond traditional methods, offering a more inclusive, understanding, and effective approach.
