These playschemes operate and run in accordance with the regulations imposed by the Care Commission and our own policies. We currently offer up to 50 places in Edinburgh, 15 places in Midlothian and 20 in West Lothian. The Playschemes are open to children and young people with an autism spectrum condition in full time education between the ages of 5 and 18.
