Resources For Autism and Barnet Family Services are working in partnership to provide an Autism Hub to support autistic children and young people and their families.

The Barnet Family Autism Hub aims to provide a supportive, neuro-affirmative space for autistic children, young people, and their families. It offers a one-stop community hub for resources and information, both before and after diagnosis.

Based out of 858 Finchley Road, we will be delivering a calendar of social opportunities and workshops for the autistic community as well as providing space for our partners in Health, Social Care and other providers to deliver services. Our staff and our partners will be available in-person and online to answer questions and provide support to access agencies at whatever stage of the autism journey.

Alongside our broader support we will also be providing in-depth tailored interventions for families who are particularly struggling to navigate their journey through health and educational pathways.

While there will be services delivered from the hub before, the service will launch officially in April 2025. If you want to be involved in the development of the hub, please register here.

For more information watch this space, or contact barnet@resourcesforautism.org.uk
