Aims and objectives

Sharing the experience of living with Asperger’s syndrome from all perspectives.

Listening to, encouraging and supporting both people with Asperger’s Syndrome and their carers, providing information, guidance and assistance through our meetings and on a personal basis.

Raising awareness of the condition in the wider community to promote better understanding and acceptance and to facilitate access to services, support and opportunities which will aid independent living.

Taking part in the consultative process with public and statutory bodies, and as members of the pan Dorset ASC Partnership Board, co-operating with other agencies and providing a collective and representative voice to promote understanding, to highlight gaps in service provision and to influence positive change towards the achievement of fulfilling and rewarding lives.

Raising funds to help to achieve these objectives and to support the efforts and activities of the volunteers in running the group and realising the aims.
