What are you doing with your autistic children this summer?-Sheffield/Chesterfield

[HecateHarshPants]

Are there any groups or social things going on?

I have been googling, but can't seem to find anything running out of term time.

Well ds doesn't do group activities and dd doesn't really fit in the SN mould regardless of her diagnosis so I don't search for SN stuff now. I'd check out Fairplay as they usually have a programme of events that appeal to teens. Dd's TA runs the holiday playscheme here which could be a possibility. Lea Green do activity days and residential courses here
We're going away for the next two weeks whilst we have a new kitchen and bathroom fitted rather than put up with the disruption and ds's reaction to the noise and mess and people being in his house. After that we'll be skint so it will be entertainment at home here tbh.

Thanks. I've spent most of the day on the phone. fairplay are getting back to me - the kids used to go there, but not for a few years now. Everyone else just keeps referring me to, erm, everyone else

I'm actually considering starting one up myself for future holidays. Have to look into it.
