Event Information

About the Group 

This is a guided support and dialogue group that uses guided mindfulness meditation and group conversation as a basis for stress recovery and improving relaxation and wellbeing. Using a set of easy-to-learn practices, we will create our own safe space and a community where participants are welcome to share and listen to each other’s thinking, stories and experiences. 

  • Themed sessions on various topics like challenges, gratitude and inspiration 
  • Share your own and hear about other people’s experiences 
  • No previous experience in groups necessary and no obligation to join in 
  • Respond rather than react to stress 
  • Cultivate self-awareness and empowerment 
  • Explore your identity in relation to autism 

Come along to our Autism Support Group which takes place every Thursday afternoon from 19th January to 23rd March from 1pm - 2.20pm (excluding 16th February). The sessions are free to attend and will run via Zoom. 

Target Audience: The sessions are open to autistic individuals and family members (e.g. parents and siblings) of autistic people based in Scotland. You must be 18+ years.

Group Host

Jonny Drury is an experienced group facilitator, meditator and coach-mentor. He encourages mindfulness meditation as part of a whole system of self-care and personal and professional development.
