About us
Who we are
Appeer is a not for profit organisation run by a small group of parents/carers of autistic and neurodivergent girls and autistic and neurodivergent women who have personal and professional experience in this field.
We provide online and in real life sessions and programmes which support A Positive PEER approach, through which autistic girls, teens and women and those around them can share interests, receive support and connect. All activities are underpinned by our 6 social, emotional, wellbeing and life/work skills key strands.
Our current programmes have been designed to support those who are diagnosed as being autistic or who are waiting for assessment for autistic spectrum condition who may also have other neurodiverse conditions. In the future we hope to expand our activities to support those with other neurodiverse conditions too, e.g. ADHD.
In person on site sessions and programmes are currently based in venues in Surrey and can be booked by families living in or close to Surrey. Online groups and activities can be accessed by those who live both within and nearby Surrey (although Surrey families may be prioritised in some sessions due to funding restrictions).
