For over three decades, Autism Plus has challenged the status quo by championing neurodiverse individuals and their rights. Passionate in its belief that people with additional needs shouldn’t have to compromise their hopes and aspirations, the organisation strives to take a whole-person approach to beneficiaries, supporting every aspect of their lives.
Established in Yorkshire in 1986 by a group of parents concerned about what the future might hold for their children, Autism Plus has since grown into one of the region’s leading nonprofits for young people with autism, learning disabilities, and other neurodiverse conditions. Recognising that over 70% of adults with autism have additional health conditions, the organisation addresses a wide range of beneficiary needs.
Now with some 450 staff and a turnover of more than £14 million, its mission is more important than ever as it strives to empower more people to live independent, fulfilling lives.
