At Appeer, everyone "fits in". We offer a place where autistic girls and women can meet like-minded peers and truly be themselves.
Appeer is a not for profit organisation run to benefit autistic girls and women, and those around them. We are proudly lived-experience led, and we source neurodivergent input and talent at every opportunity.
We provide
online
and in-person Sessions and Programmes which support
A
Positive
PEER approach, through which autistic
Girls,
Teens and
Women and their
Parents/Carers
can connect through sharing interests and receiving support. All our work is underpinned by our 6
key strands
supporting life skills, social, emotional, and mental health and wellbeing, and promotes the understanding of autism.
In-person Sessions and Programmes are currently based in venues in Surrey and can be booked by families living in or close to Surrey.
Online
Groups and Activities can be accessed by those who live both within and nearby Surrey (although Surrey families may be prioritised in some Sessions due to funding restrictions).
Our current Programmes have been designed to support those who are diagnosed as being autistic or who are waiting for assessment for an autistic spectrum condition, who may also have other neurodivergent conditions. In the future we hope to expand our activities to support those with other primary neurodiverse conditions too, for example ADHD.
We welcome applications from those who meet our admissions criteria, including those who identify as girls and women and/or those assigned female at birth who many be gender questioning and/or non binary (see our
Admissions Policy).
