Autistic Adults Peer Support Network
Connections is an information, advice and support hub in Dundee. As part of the Dundee Health and Social Care Partnership, Connections provides information and support for adults who identify as autistic, at any point of your journey. Connections’ Community Advisors provide advice and support to autistic people with or without a diagnosis, either in person or virtually.
Our Dundee Connections Autistic Adult Peer Support Network is a space for autistic adults 18+. The group is an autistic safe space and provides a relaxed and friendly space for individuals to support each other and discuss their experiences as an autistic individual.
Numbers attending the groups are limited to ensure a comfortable space for all therefore booking is essential.
