Child Autism UK helps children with autism achieve their potential. They provide services to enable children to overcome difficulties with communication, learning and life skills and give families the techniques and strategies to cope with autism through the use of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA). Child Autism UK also provides training and a network for ABA professionals working with young children.

Autism, according to the NHS Information Centre, is estimated to affect around 1% of the UK population. That’s 700,000 people who live with the condition. 

Autism is a lifelong condition with no cure but the difficulties people with autism face in life can be significantly managed through intervention at an early age. Skill and coping strategies learned as children have lifetime relevance and can make an enormous difference to their ability when they become adults with autism to make the most of their lives.

In the UK today, the average child waits up to 5 years for a diagnosis.  

Child Autism UK provides a helpline that can provide parents in this situation with valuable advice. They offer information to help them make informed decisions about their next steps.

Donations totalling £150 covers the helpline for a day. Please give generously.
