Adult Autistic Support Group

A relaxed, non-judgemental space where you can connect with others, share experiences, and feel supported. This welcoming group is open to all autistic adults, whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis or have been navigating life for years.

Each session offers a chance to meet like-minded people, build confidence, and take part in open discussions in a safe and understanding environment. We’ll also feature guest speakers covering topics that matter most to our community — from wellbeing and relationships to employment, independence, and self-advocacy.

Come as you are, enjoy friendly conversation, and be part of a community that values and celebrates neurodiversity.

CV Workshops

Informal sessions tailored to be less intimidating and more structured helping young people with autism feel more comfortable and in control.

There will be specific communication support as many autistic individuals may struggle with self advocacy or identifying their strengths.

Theses sessions will help them recognise and articulate their skills and interests in a CV

Youth Clubs

We currently have two different age youth groups running. This is the 8 - 13 years old group. They are all held at EKC Sheppey Secondary, unless otherwise stated below.

We will have VR-Headsets, Board Games, LEGO, Crafts and Table Tennis, indoor football. Drinks and snacks will be available to purchase at a subsidised cost.

This is open to young people living in Swale.

Numbers are limited so booking is essential. Please email admin@autismapprentice.co.uk to book your place.
