Asperger’s Support

we focus on helping people with Asperger’s to lead happy, healthy and fulfilling lives. We foster dynamic and inclusive communities for people with Asperger’s to develop independent living skills, build new friendships and enjoy greater levels of independence. We recognize the goals and aspirations of each individual and help them enjoy greater involvement in their communities and beyond. In each of these friendly and welcoming communities, dedicated staff are on site 24 hours a day to provide practical day-to-day support and encourage independent living. It is our privilege to support people with Asperger’s in finding a home of their own. Get in touch with us to learn how you or a loved one can get started on the journey towards greater independence.

Helping People Live Independently Through Person-Centred Support and Community-Based Living

We are an award winning charity that started life in 2008, spearheading the concept of neurodiverse counselling therapy to those who need it and also to the therapeutic community – who have needed to know about it – ever since.

We can help with individual counselling for those with autism/Asperger’s syndrome, relationship counselling where one or both partners has autism/Asperger’s syndrome, and/or counselling for close others – whether neurodiverse or neurotypical.

The Liaise Approach

Each of our homes is unique and tailored to the needs and wishes of the people it supports. Working closely with each individual, we create highly-personalised support plans tailored to the unique goals and ambitions of each person we support.

Each support plan is designed to help the individual develop and strengthen their functional living, social, and communication skills while enjoying a greater sense of community. Our highly skilled staff use a wide range of tools and research-backed approaches to promote confidence and self-esteem and encourage positive communication.

Our support plans are regularly reviewed in partnership with the individual to ensure we are always meeting our shared goals. Where appropriate, we welcome input from families, friends and advocates. We strongly believe people do best when they are supported by a team who value them as individuals and with whom they share a trusted relationship
