Get Together

It's not just parents who benefit - grandparents also come along to chat about experiences, share experiences, and find support and an increasing number of Dads attend the 'Come & Share' sessions. The group is a safe environment where nobody judges behaviour because they all have similar experiences. There are plenty of activities provided to entertain the children.

Why they need our service

Get Together is a small club in Coventry which was founded in 2010 to support children with Autism and Asperger's Syndrome, and their families.

Plan and expected results

They are a very successful club and are oversubscribed. They provide a safe, fun and friendly environment in which everybody can interact in their own way, in age and ability appropriate activities without questions and prejudice.

Speakability

Between 25 and 50 people meet fortnightly at the Salvation Army hall. New members arrive having lost confidence, friends, and even jobs as a result of their speech difficulties.
