WANDS - support group for adults on the Neuro diverse spectrum

We are a support group for adults on the Neuro diverse spectrum or suspect that they may be on the spectrum ie Autism, Asperger's, ASD, ASC, ADHD, ADD, sensory learning disorders such as dyslexia etc.

We meet every Thursday evening in the Roy Humphreys centre, 86 Sandy lane Warrington  WA2 9HU 7,00 - 9.00pm  it is ok to arrive anytime between them hours.

 The building is lower level with cafe style seating.  We have a quiet room where you can relax if needed.  There is a large garden part covered with seating.

There are various activities available if you would like to join in.  Large jigsaw always on the go, board games too.  We have fidget/sensory that can be used.  We also have art & craft that can brought out if you prefer.

We sometimes have guests who join who will discuss particular topics.

Tea/coffee/juice is provided alongside biscuits.

If you want to come & stay silent that is ok no one will be bothered by that.

If you are nervous about entering please ask & we will meet you outside.

Don't worry about quirks we all have them you will not be any different to the others.

In general 15-20 attend.  Mix of male & female also mixed ages.  The range of sex & ages is different every week.

The group is led by volunteers & at least one will always be on site.

We rent tbe room and request £2 towards rent per person.  We don't take note of who pays so if you cant afford it don't worry.

We have a bus stop outside that goes to Warrington bus station.
