Autism Understanding Scotland

Autism Understanding Scotland Logo

Autism Understanding Scotland is an autistic-led charity dedicated to helping people deepen their knowledge and understanding of autism.

It can be a daunting experience getting to grips with an autism diagnosis for yourself or a family member. People are often given conflicting information about autism, and it can be hard to figure out fact from fiction. Our staff members are themselves autistic and have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share. We acknowledge that everyone is at a different place in their journey to autism understanding, and we are here to help guide you along the way.
