About the hub

The aim of the teen hub is to offer support and a safe space for families who have teenagers on the Autistic Spectrum. Teenagers (including siblings) can participate at their own pace with support from parents and our staff team if needed.

We offer a choice of activities including themed arts and crafts, table top games, sports activities, sensory room and garden. There is also a communal area so you can sit back and enjoy some refreshments, whilst talking to other families and sharing experiences or speaking with staff for advice and support.

There is a charge of £1 for refreshments, and we would also be really grateful if you could donate what you can afford towards the running of the session. Cash is preferred.

No need to book a place – just turn up – but feel free to contact me if you have any questions or you would like to be added to my mailing list – chris.smith@aem.org.uk
