In collaboration with SAANS, Voluntary Action Sheffield (VAS) and The Sheffield Autism Partnership Network (SAPN) are carrying out a 6-month pilot project aimed at improving the experiences of people who are on the waiting list for an Autism assessment. SAANS and SAPN have teamed up with 6 local voluntary organisations to improve access to wellbeing and practical support for people on the Autism assessment waiting list.
These organisations are Autism Plus, Darnall Well Being, Firvale Community Hub, Percy Street CIC, SACMHA and Sheffield Voices at Disability Sheffield – these organisations have loads of experience in providing support to people across a variety of communities in Sheffield, as well as a shared commitment to making their services accessible and friendly for Autistic people and people experiencing challenges that are associated with being Autistic.
No matter where you are on your diagnostic journey, these organisations are available to provide you with support and advice to help improve and maintain your wellbeing while you wait.
