The MAIN team has the skills, experience and motivation to offer first hand support and advice to people of all ages living with Autism.This support and advice takes shape in a wide variety of forms. Parents with newly diagnosed children are welcome to approach MAIN. Our team will understand if you have a negative state of mind and you feel like you don't know where to go or what to do next.MAIN can bring about a positive change in attitudes by introducing families to others in similar situations and by advising on the best possible way forward to ensure their child has the most fulfilling of lives ahead of them.Ultimately MAIN is about empowering individuals and families living with Autism. Everything we do is delivered in a fun and friendly manner, focusing "not on what MAIN can do for you, but what MAIN can help you do for yourself". MAIN is driven by the collective experiences and knowledge of those within the organisation. We've been there, done that and got the T-shirt, not just bought the text book!MAIN's over-riding drive to encourage a positive outlook to living with Autism is backed up by social groups, workshops, and signposting what is available in order to support families and individuals as they move forward in their lives.
