as there some threads about support/services now,thought would start a thread here for everyone to add services they know of who are either designed for Auties/Aspies,or are included amongst others.

UK based
Organisations that offer many different types of services:
http://www.nas.org.uk
http://www.autisminitiatives.org/
http://www.mencap.org.uk/

Therapies,assistance
http://www.petsastherapy.org.uk/
http://www.nordoff-robbins.org.uk/
http://www.support-dogs.org.uk/AADogs.htm
http://www.riding-for-disabled.org.uk/

Adult and children holiday services
http://www.bendrigg.org.uk/ [for both children and adults with all types of disabilities]
http://www.epiphany.org.uk/chrysalis/chrysalis.html

of all of them,am have used/use NAS,AI,mencap,PAT,RDA and Bendrigg,recommend them all,the other ones am live with people who use them,apart from Nordoff Robbins [radio one did a fundraiser for them years ago with a dj battle] and assistance dogs,have included them because they've just started in this country for Autists but there are some US WPers who have assistance dogs already.


Cant think of more to add......
