Perth Autism Support was founded in November 2011 with the sole aim to provide quality autism specific services for children under 18 years old and their families throughout Perth & Kinross. Working with Perth & Kinross Council, NHS Tayside and other voluntary sector organisations, we provide a number of social activities, information, advice and support. We believe at Perth Autism Support that early intervention is critical for children and young people to be enabled to lead fulfilling lives and training and awareness raising is essential to ensure that they are understood and supported in a positive way.
