Autism Families
Support for parents, carers and organisations.
Welcome to Autism Families
Our focus is currently on providing 1:1 support for parents and carers who have autistic family members (or believe they may have). Our goal is to empower families to understand more about autism, and how to support their loved ones in a positive neurodiversity affirming way.
We also run bespoke courses and training on autism, for families (on request) and for employers and organisations.
Support is delivered by Amy Phipps, a parent of two autistic, and multiply neurodivergent, teens, who is a social worker with over 25 years experience in the field of autism. Families and carers can rest assured that their experiences are understood, respected and valued, while also benefitting from years of professional knowledge and experience.
We are based in Bristol, but offer support online so we can be accessible to all.
Testimonial
We have recently been granted EOTAS (Education Otherwise Than At School) for our boy, aged 11. We would not be where we are without Amy’s advice and support. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience and understands the process and frustrations of navigating the system.
Just wanted to say thank you Amy for all your help and advice guiding us to the point of getting the right support in place for our son. I wish there were more people like you to help navigate the minefield from diagnosis onwards. We wouldn’t be where we are today without your help.
