Great North Swim 2026 · 12 June 2026 ·

For 45 years we’ve led the way in supporting autistic and neurodivergent individuals, and their families, across the North East of England. We work to create a society where autism is understood and accepted, inclusion is the norm, and autistic people can lead fulfilled lives.

Story

Tunstall is one of the residential children’s homes run by the North East Autism Society. Here, our dedicated team creates a warm, supportive ‘home from home’ environment for four children who are autistic or have complex additional needs.

Empowering autistic children and young people to live happy, healthy, and fulfilled lives is at the heart of everything we do. Our 24-hour, bespoke support services are tailored to the individual needs of each child in our care, ensuring they thrive in a setting that truly understands them.

On the 13th June Alex, Rae, Iain and Laura are taking on the Great North Swim, a one mile open water challenge across Lake Windemere to raise money for a North East Autism Society children's home to use in their garden.
