A face to face group for anyone over the age of 16 who identifies as autistic and lives in the Herefordshire and Worcestershire area.

Welcome to the Worcester Social Group!

Our Worcester Social Group is a safe and trusted space for autistic individuals living in Herefordshire and Worcestershire to socialise and communicate with one another.

We will provide tea, coffee and biscuits but please do let us know if you have any allergies or dietary requirements!

Throughout the group the staff will make a range of activities available including board games, quizzes, colouring in, arts and crafts and so much more. However, please don’t feel any pressure to engage with these activities.

If you would like further information about the location of our group please get in touch with us and we can send across an information document we have put together including information and photos about the venue as well as travel information.

Due to the increased demand of this social group booking is essential! We have limited spaces and would hate to turn anyone away. We also politely ask you to make us aware of any medical conditions you may have. Should any of these impact your participation within the group, Autism West Midlands reserves the right to work alongside you and implement a risk assessment to ensure the safety of yourself, other members of the group and the staff.

Please note that, due to adverse weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances (such as staff illness), we may need to cancel this event at short notice. If this happens, we will make every effort to notify you as early as possible on the day of the event.

Please note: different members of the group are at different stages within understanding their autism and working through their mental health, which may display as physical, emotional and mental indicators of this, if you are concerned, please talk to a member of staff
