Our Aims

The core aims of the charity are:
 

• to fund autism awareness training from nursery to secondary school (from ages 3-18) to enable all adults working with children and young people in schools to identify the signs of autism.

​

• to fund autism awareness courses for parents of children with autism.

​

• To create a safe space for children with autism where they can interact freely, comfortably and discuss problems they may be facing in a safe environment. 

​

• to promote tolerance and education by engaging with children and young people through school visits and presentations.

​

• to petition for the law to be changed so that the Scottish Government is required to ensure that autism awareness training provided to all adults working with children and young people in schools is made mandatory.

​

• to advocate for an increase in funding by the Scottish Government for resources for young people's mental health specifically more resources for units such as Child & Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) to diagnose people in schools, provide support training for parents as well as teachers and support staff.
