What is the Autistic Woman's Group and why do we meet?

AWG is a support group for Autistic women and non binary people.  AWG is a space to unmask and connect with others who have similar shared experiences, it's a relaxed group where you can share as little or as much as you like.  At our sessions we chat about how our weeks have gone; what's gone well, what's been difficult, we share tips and tricks, new information we've discovered, occasionally we have group activities and guest speakers to spice things up! 

 

Who is AWG for? 

This group is for women, trans women, and nonbinary people who are on the Autism spectrum. AWG is open to people who have a diagnosis, who are waiting for a diagnosis, or suspect they are on the Autism spectrum and are potentially interested in pursuing a diagnosis.
