WELCOME TO MAIN

At MAIN we support people, not ‘cases’ or ‘numbers’.

Our team includes dedicated parents, who have each individually adapted to living with Autism in its various forms. The MAIN team has the skills, experience and motivation to offer first hand support and advice to people of all ages living with Autism.

MAIN exists to offer advice and services tailored to individuals and families living with Autism, to raise their aspirations, empower themselves, and to have the confidence to ‘wear the T-shirt with a smile’.

Our ambition is to change societies perceptions of Autism, and to increase understanding of the challenges and opportunities that living with Autism brings.
