Project aims

'Alphabet 12' offers people with Autism including Asperger's Syndrome the chance to explore opportunities that will bring confidence and motivation to their lives. 

'Alphabet 12' is inclusive and welcomes advocates, carers, families, parents, siblings and support workers to name some examples.

Our project covers various subjects themes including education, employment, health, well being and socialising and host specialist guest speakers to share experiences and initiatives to the group as well as sign posting and opportunity networking.

"Alphabet 12 is a place where people can find empowering information, practical tools, friendships, support. In an increasingly isolated world, it's even more challenging when you're a little different from typical, and that can mean being being alone. Alphabet 12 get people involved, active and alive. It's a terrific group of vibrant people from all walks of life sharing the common thread of the challenge and opportunity of having a neuro-difference."

Justin Donne

“It's a pleasure to talk to a group of people who are so interested in what is being done in the wider community to support an understanding of autism.”

Debby Elley, Co-Founder of ‘AuKids’
