This is what our members say
Finding the right social and leisure activities can be a challenge for autistic individuals and their families. At I AM, we understand these unique needs and are here to provide tailored solutions that foster engagement, enjoyment, and community connections.
Our social and leisure activities, guided by autism specialists, create an inclusive environment for everyone to enjoy and participate. We focus on building connections, promoting friendships, and enhancing social skills, confidence, and well-being. Designed to support both individuals and families, our programmes strengthen bonds and enrich lives.
We exist to support, empower, and celebrate autistic people. Our aim is to be the region’s leading developer and provider of autism support services – the first point of contact for anyone navigating an autism diagnosis in Greater Manchester.
