Norfolk & Waveney ASD/ADHD Support Service

We support parents and carers of children and young people in the Norfolk & Waveney area who are waiting for or undergoing a neurodevelopmental assessment, or where there has been a recent diagnosis of autism or ADHD. We offer courses, parent coffee mornings, information sessions and a monthly newsletter covering challenges faced by parents and carers. We can talk to you on the phone or online or come along to a face-to-face group.

What do we provide?

We offer support to parents/carers by listening and giving advice and guidance. This includes behaviour and routines, schools and education, anxiety and sleep:

• Signposting to resources and other services, including Family Action’s FamilyLine.
• Monthly newsletters with information on our upcoming events and articles of interest.
• Peer support groups such as coffee mornings, virtual evening groups, all run by our experienced team.

Our courses:

• Plan Bee: a 3-week course to support parents/carers to understand their child or young person. The course is particularly written for parents/carers who suspect their child has autism or ADHD. The course is delivered face-to-face across the county and online.
• Puffins (4 weeks) Norfolk & Cygnet (6 weeks) Waveney: Does your child/young person already have a diagnosis of autism? These courses are very popular with parents/carers and are delivered by a range of people with expertise in autism.
