Autism & Neurodiversity North Scotland (previously Grampian Autistic Society) was founded in 1987 by a small group of parents and professionals who were concerned for the needs of autistic individuals. It was the first organisation of its kind in the region to offer help and support to autistic individuals, their families and wider support networks. Beginning as a support group, the society expanded over time and became a parent-run organisation which was later constituted into a charity. We have a staff team of around 50 people and provide direct, ongoing support and services to over 150 individuals and their families throughout Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray and North Scotland, as well as support groups in person, and online.
