Autism Hub events

Information and advice sessions for London and Midlands families.

Contact is currently one of nine not-for-profit organisations that make up Autism Central. The project has provided parents and carers of autistic people easy access to autism education, training and support in regional hubs across England.

Together with Ambitious about Autism, we run the London and Midlands hubs.

From 1 October 2025, the Autism Central programme will transition from Contact and Ambitious about Autism to be led by Anna Freud. Read the full statement
