ELAS is a support and social group based in Edinburgh for autistic spectrum adults, over 16. There is no requirement for diagnosis, indeed connecting to a group before diagnosis can be a help, no upper age limit, no distance boundary for attending, and no hoops to join. Belong by taking part. We have a strong ethic of inclusion.

ELAS holds a weekly meet in the arts district around Lothian Road, usually in a cinema/theatre bar, at present it is at the Cameo 5:30-9:00, drop in any time. It may return to Filmhouse when reopens, if found more spacious, we were friendly with the old Filmhouse. Also a weekly video meet on Skype, Sundays 8:30: contact for the link. Or connect online at facebook.com/groups/672022686329476 or google group "ELAS Edin". We always welcome answering questions for new folks in any of them.
