Description

We provide person-centred support to neurodivergent children and young people up to age 25. No formal diagnosis is required to access our service.

We can support children and young people to:

  • Understand and exercise their rights, through issue-based advocacy
  • Understand neurodiversity and develop positive coping strategies
  • Navigate key transitions in their lives

Developing positive wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do as we build upon strengths and skills supporting the child/young person to become more knowledgeable, confident, and empowered.

We also have a specific service for autistic adults (diagnosed or self-identifying) aged 16-25 in Midlothian, offering post diagnostic support.
