North East Autism Society

Who we are

Caring for and empowering children, young people, and adults who live life through the lens of neurodiversity, is our life's work and our passion.  

Our services include residential homes for children and adults, and supported living services, which are specifically tailored to individual needs of the people we care for. Recognised for our innovation and excellence, everything we do stems from an unswerving belief in providing bespoke person-centred support. It’s at the heart of who we are.  

We also have 3 purpose-built specialist schools and a college, providing education services for children aged 3-19, post 16 education and social/vocational training along with supported and open employment opportunities for adults.  

We’ve come a long way since we were founded 40 years ago by a group of parents who sought better services and opportunities for their children, but there’s so much to do. With your help, we can make it happen.
