WHAT?
This is a smaller and quieter social group for people who may feel like they need 'something in between'
What does this mean?
Some people are happy to come to our social groups and enjoy their own company. This is totally fine and a completely valid way of being with other people.
Some people find it very difficult to connect with other people, and to join in with conversation but want to be with other people.
The Bridge is a group for people who want to meet other autistic people, but need more time, space, and support.
Each session will have a Peer Mentor who connects easily to help us, and one who also finds starting conversations challenging, so you know you are not alone.
There will be no forced participation, no role play and everyone is still free to choose their own activities, or to join with others. with support.
If you are not sure if this group is for you, please ask.
