Slough group for autistic women

This group offers an opportunity for autistic women, aged 18 and above, who live in the Slough Borough Council area, to make connections, share experiences and build a support network with people who ‘get’ them.

It will provide a safe space where they set the agenda for discussions and activities and an opportunity to develop friendships and a peer support network to improve their wellbeing and self-confidence. 

An adult autism support mentor and an autistic volunteer facilitate the group and can offer advice about autism and help to get support from other services, such as healthcare, benefits advice and employment support.

The group meets at the Chalvey Community Hub, in Ladbrooke Road, just off High Street.

The meetings normally take place twice a month on Thursdays, between 11.30am and 1pm, with forthcoming sessions on the following dates:

  • March 19
  • April 2 and 16
  • May 7 and 21

We also have a group in Slough for autistic young adults, aged 18 to 25 – click here for details.

  • The group is funded by a #OneSlough grant from Slough Council for Voluntary Service and Slough Borough Council.
