Welcome to The Autism Group, a Maidenhead based charity committed to supporting and enhancing the lives of young people on the spectrum, their parents and carers
We offer a warm, well informed response to the needs of young people on the autistic spectrum, their parents, carers and wider community through our special interest clubs, workshops and parent support services .
Clubs
We run a range of Saturday activity clubs, in central Maidenhead, for ages 9 to 30. Sessions are built around topics that young people tell us they enjoy. You can find clubs offering Arts and Crafts, Console Gaming, table top roleplaying games, Pokemon, Lego and more. Run by experienced and DBS checked staff and volunteers, all clubs are subject to a registration process and some may at times have a waiting list.
