Different Worlds - Basingstoke, Hants

We are a group of parents, carers, friends and relatives with a common link. We all have personal experience of Aspergers Syndrome or other Autistic Spectrum Disorders. The group was set up by parents for parents and other carers etc to find, and, offer some badly needed mutual support in this very challenging and often distressing area of daily life. There was no other support or help available locally that catered for Aspergers Syndrome so the decision was made to start our group in December 2003.

We meet fortnightly and invite ‘Guest Speakers’ along to the meetings. We have had visits from Social Services, the Local Education Authority, Alternative Therapists re. dietary advice etc. We managed to enlist the help and support of our local MP early on in Different Worlds and he has helped several of our members individually as well as helping the group ‘have a voice’.

Publicity is very important to us as a group as it is our wish to help and support as many of those affected by Aspergers Syndrome and the like as possible.
