Since the start of the Coronavirus pandemic in March 2020, we have been running some of our autistic-led groups that would have taken place at the Lovell Autism Hub online. Now, we are running a few regular groups via Zoom and Discord, as well as a couple in-person at the Lovell Park Hub.
Please click on the boxes below to find out more about each group.
