Belonging, wellbeing and acceptance
London Autism Group Charity is a registered charity led by autistic people and compassionate allies. We support autistic people, their families and carers across London and the surrounding counties.
Our mission is to promote social inclusion, improve mental and physical health and wellbeing, and build understanding and acceptance of autism. We work to reduce stigma, discrimination and the barriers that prevent people from taking part in community life.
How we put our mission into practice
Our community cafes, Activity Days and meet-ups offer welcoming spaces to connect, enjoy activities and build friendships. Our programmes include Fridays at Farringdon, Autistic Film Club, Autistic Women’s Lunch and Strolling with Neurokin.
We also provide autistic workplace support sessions and one-to-one mental health and autistic identity support. Our befriending and community outreach services help people build confidence and connections. Each service has its own eligibility and capacity arrangements, which are explained on its information page.
Through our podcast, live radio show, articles, training, consultancy and research services, we share lived experience and encourage better understanding and more inclusive practice.
Our aims
- Promote the social inclusion of autistic people and family carers.
- Support mental and physical health and wellbeing.
- Increase autism acceptance and reduce stigma and discrimination.
Our staff, volunteers and supporters help us put these aims into practice. We listen to the autistic community and value people’s different experiences, interests and support needs.
