We are often contacted by parents and cares who feel isolated and lost, not having the support they need for their child. They see their child's capacity to engage deteriorate, widening the gap from their peers.

Many have barriers to education and have reduced positive experiences in childhood, impacting their social, emotional and mental health development.

At Autism Arena, we consider each child holistically and help their parent/carer become a stronger advocate. We help their needs be understood and met, so that they can reach their potential.

Not having the right adjustments in place impacts a child's mental health. This impacts their future and their family.

Often we hear of a parent giving up work to support their child. It is be emotional and overwhelming with widespread impact.

At Autism Arena, we all have neurodivergent children and are professionals in health, education and social work, with additional qualifications in autism and neurodivergence.

Thank you for supporting your Team Spartan member in undertaking this epic challenge and raise money to help families. We are all very thankful.
