Avalon Parental Support & Respite Services

Avalon is a local charity set up to support parents caring for children with Autism. The charity was founded by two parents following the diagnosis of their daughter.  Therefore, we understand the challenges you face.  This year has been particularly challenging due to the pandemic, so we have developed some exciting new services to help you.

We  have partnered with leading wellbeing experts to develop two programmes for parents to enhance your wellbeing, which will begin in June (see details below).

 Benefits & time commitment

 Both programmes will be piloted to allow us to learn from the feedback and experiences of the parents who attend.  This will also provide parents with an opportunity to shape future services.  We know your time is precious, so the sessions have been been specially designed to be flexible and to fit in with your busy life.

For a sneak peek at what the programmes will include, watch this short video.
