Hello people of Blaenau Gwent!

We are starting a monthly hub in Tredegar on the first friday of every month!
What can you expect?: A safe space to connect with other autistic individuals, the main goal of the hub is to operate as a peer group where you can just sit down, relax and talk with others. There will be optional social activities and opportunities to chat with ASCC staff.
Need employment or educational support? Meg or Kerry will be there to chat to, you can email in to book slots with them or check availability on the day.
Looking for help with benefits? Our benefits officer can offer you a teams appointment, utilise the hub to drop off your relevant benefit forms and evidence in time for your meeting.

Our first hub will be Friday 4th September. You can find us downstairs in the wellbeing social area of the Bevan Centre. Please come along or email our info@ inbox for more information, theres no need to book spaces to enjoy the social time!

We look forward to seeing you there🤩
