Weekly
meet up
We hold a weekly meet-up for Autistic/PDA/ADHD teens and young adults (aged 13-20 yrs) who are experiencing mental health difficulties.
We meet every Friday 12-2.30pm at Neurodivergent Safe Space, 9 West Road, Westcliff-on-sea, Essex, SS0 9AU. Our premises are practically opposite The Palace Theatre on London Road, and we are next door to Shamanic Body Arts.
We have all sorts of activities each week, including an arts & crafts, Xbox One, Wii console, puzzles, board games, colouring, drawing, games, and more!
We also go out for activities such as indoor rock climbing, going to the beach, visiting the animals at the zoo, and we have so much more planned! Going out as a group and doing something fun (that maybe you've never done before) is a great way to form friendships, gain confidence, find new interests, and just have fun!
We are a very relaxed group focused on being Autistic, PDA, & ADHD friendly, where you are free to just hang out, relax, and be yourself without any anxiety that you will be judged or seen as being 'different'.
If you would like to come along to the group, you are more than welcome to join us, or even just pop in to say 'hello' to see what it is like with no pressure to stay for the whole session if you don't want to. We're a friendly bunch who don't judge and would love to see you
The group is run by a PDA autistic with ADHD and our team have a great deal of experience (both personal and professional) and qualifications regarding mental health difficulties and suicide, and we are always available during the club to have a quiet chat with about how you are feeling, your special interest, or anything you like!
