Our story
Dear reader,
We would like to introduce ourselves. We are a group of individuals who bring our own experiences to the GAIN team on a voluntary basis.
We aim to support parents and carers of young people on the autistic spectrum in the Grantham area.
Our founder member, Jane Emery, recognised the absence of one-to-one support for those struggling with (or without) a diagnosis of this condition.
Over the years we have invited relevant service providers to speak. We have worked with Belton Lane children’s centre, Swingbridge children’s centre and Ambergate sports college,
Our current task is to adapt to changing circumstances.
Sincerely,
The GAIN team.
