Autistic Adults Peer Support Network
This group is for autistic adults in Dundee, at any point during their diagnosis journey, including those who self-identify as autistic. Connections also support those in Perth and Angus who are awaiting an autism assessment through the Tayside Adult Autism Consultancy Team (TAACT).
If you have not had contact with our Dundee Connections team previously please contact us by emailing dundeeconnections@scottishautism.org or call 03030 034 020 prior to booking.
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. To find out more or book to attend, please email us at dundeeconnections@scottishautism.org or call 03030 034 020.
Maximum number of attendees: 6
