WHISH (Whitby Hidden Impairments Support and Help Group) is a support group for all parents, carers, individuals and professionals in the Whitby and District area who have an interest in hidden impairments, including Asperger syndrome and autism. WHISH was set up by a group of parents who wanted to reduce their families' isolation, give their children positive experiences and support each other. WHISH offers various activities throughout the year, such as swimming, fun sessions, coffee mornings, riding, computer courses and training for parents and professionals. All of the activities are offered to member families free of charge and the entire family are welcome at all events, and there is a supply of special toys and resources which can be loaned out to members.
