National Autistic Society Online Community
The Online Community is a free UK‑wide online peer support service provided by the National Autistic Society. It offers autistic people and families a welcoming and respectful space to connect with others, share experiences and seek emotional support and advice. It provides access to peer support at any time of day, allowing people to read and take part in discussions when it suits them. Many people use the Online Community during difficult periods or when they want to hear from others with similar lived experience. The Online Community is actively moderated and has clear rules in place to help keep users safe and supported. Discussions span a wide range of topics such as introductions, mental health, wellbeing, lifestyle, and issues specific to women and girls.
