SIGNAL aims to improve the quality of the lives of our members and the local autism community
Mutual support
We are a mutual support group for the families of autistic children and young people (ages 0-25) living in the London borough of Lewisham.
Established in 1993 by a small group of parents, from the original half dozen families we are now over 700.
We provide access to inclusive activities such as trampolining and swimming and trips for families to socialise in a non-judgemental environment
Our mission
Our parents and carers benefit from meetings and workshops on all aspects of autism, plus a private Facebook group which is welcoming and supportive.
We provide opportunities for parents to socialise and share their experiences of local resources so that families are able to navigate through the complex education and health systems in order to get the best for their child and young person.
We have regular meetings and workshops with speakers who are invited to come to talk to SIGNAL members about relevant topics. We aim to invite speakers who are themselves autistic wherever that is possible.
