Lighthouse Autism Support Details
Lighthouse is a grassroots venture that provides outreach support and advice to people with autism and their families. We also offer advice and autism-specific training to other multi-agency partners, employers, schools and colleges.We have over thirty years of experience in the Autism support sector. Our staff have managed residential services, outreach support schemes and day centres and worked across a full spectrum of individual needs; planning and delivering essential support to many complex, vulnerable autistic people across Lancashire and Yorkshire. Additionally, we offer qualified support tutoring for students in Further and Higher Education. Where traditional learning environments might not be appropriate, we design and deliver bespoke courses based on an individual needs, interests and hobbies.People and their families often tell us about the difficulties they've had finding the right support. This is sometimes due to a late diagnosis or a lack of local knowledge and resources. Sometimes, sourcing support that reflects their autism specific needs has been a struggle. If we've learnt anything, it's that everyone has their own story to tell and all our successful partnerships have been built on actively listening to people with autism and their families.Being a smaller, community-based provider enables us to be much more responsive and flexible. We aim to complete assessment and service design in a timely fashion and have excellent multi-agency links across the county and beyond to speed the process along. We offer advice on funding options and can also help with funding applications when autism specific advice is needed.We have strong values, built on ground level experience and we're not top heavy with layers of management, policy or strategy. Our focus is firmly on your outcomes.
