autism plus limited
Sheffield
Autism Plus was formed in 1986 by a group of passionate parents. Since then we
have supported thousands of people on their journeys to more independence We
support adults and young people with autism, learning disabilities, mental
health conditions and complex needs We were created by a group of parents in
1986 who were looking for the very best support for their children who were
about to leave a specialist school. Once they reached 17, they found there was
little or no support. Coming together they established Autism Plus in the market
town of Thorne, near Doncaster to provide person centred support in residential
living, and learning for adults and young people with autism and learning
disabilities. The belief set by our founding parents, to empower more people to
live independent, fulfilling lives remains our focus today. Today, as a leading
Yorkshire charity we are empowering more people every day to achieve more than
they had dared to dream was possible. We employ over 450 people across the north
of England in care support services, employment support and social enterprise
businesses. Choice Choice is central to our vision. You and I can choose where
and how we live, what we eat, wear and do. We believe that everyone, no matter
what barriers they are facing, should have those same choices and the chance to
realise their full potential.
