We recently moved back home to Liverpool after living in Dublin for 6 years. My son is 16 and has Autism and Dyspraxia. Im looking for any support groups in person for him to attend to make friends as all his friends are in Ireland, can any one advise? Thanks

Hello @keren77
Welcome to the community, good to see you join us.
In person groups aren't back to the same level as they were before the pandemic, a lot of them are still virtual at the moment, but I hope you are able to find some for your son using the links provided.
You may also wish to try the National Autistic Society, or even contact your local council to see if they have a list of any events or groups for disabled children in the area.Online Community CoordinatorConcerned about another member's safety or wellbeing? Flag your concerns with us.
