Free resource launched by NHS England
We’re excited to share Autism Central, a free resource funded by NHS England, created to support families, carers, and personal assistants of autistic people of all ages. Whether your child has just received a diagnosis or you’re looking for ways to better understand and support their needs, this resource is here to help.
The Autism Central website launched on 1st October 2025 is packed with helpful information and tools. The website aligns with our work in the Partnerships for Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS) framework. It helps families feel confident in advocating for their children and securing the right support across education, health and social care.
