Scottish Autism is an organisation dedicated to enriching the lives of autistic people. Established in 1968 by a group of parents, we are the largest provider of autism-specific services in Scotland and a leading authority and advocate for good autism practice. Autistic people are placed at the heart of everything we do, and we are committed to ‘enabling autistic people to lead happy, healthy and fulfilling lives.'
As a charity we strive to raise public awareness and acceptance of autism, as many people can struggle to understand the multi-dimensional nature of autism.
We seek to share our knowledge and expertise with parents, carers and professionals to support the development of skills and strategies needed to provide the best care and support for autistic people.
We offer a range of adult services including day, outreach and supported living services as well as supporting children and young people at New Struan School, Alloa. We deliver a range of vocational opportunities in the areas where people are supported to develop work-based skills.
Our dedicated team of Autism Advisors are trained and experienced in working with autistic people. Each year we handle hundreds of calls, and our advice line enables a direct first response to families looking for information, advice and support.
