A cornerstone of this work is the Autism Hub, established in 2018 in the London Boroughs of Islington and Camden. The Hub is a user-led service, designed by and for autistic adults who frequently fall through gaps in mainstream provision.

The Hub bridges this gap, connecting individuals to resoLsrces, services, and opportunities that enhan quality of life. The Autism Hub delivers a wide range of services, including advocacy, peer support, specialist advice, information. and signposting for service users, families. carers. and professionals. In addition, the Hub offers autism-infomied counselling and bespoke, autism- led training to external partners, organisations. and professionals. These services not only provide direct support to autistic adults but also build wider awareness, capacity. and expertise within the community, creating a sustainable, positive impact across London.

The Board of Trustees. in collaboration with the Chief Executive, has continued to implement policies and procedures designed to maintain high standards of service delivery and ensure compliance with funders, expectations. Trustees are pleased that local authorities recognise the value of our work, and express their gratitude to all those who contributed to securing this funding.

The Board of Trustees currenuy comprises five Members. During this reporting period, a new Treasurer was appointed following the resignats'on of the previous postholder in February 2024. In the interim. the Chair and Vice-chair assumed additional responsibilities to ensure that the organisation continued to meet its statutory and regulatory obligations. External advice was sought from professionals with expertise in finance and the charitsble sector to support continuity and maintain robust governance during this transition. Additionally, one long-standing trustee stepped down during the year for health reasons. The organisation has since begun recruiting additional trustees, with a particular focus on strengthening oversight of service operations.

ALAG autism hub Asporger London AT•a Group these arrangements have been managed with appropriate oversight, ensuring that safeguarding. service quality, and operational continuity remain uncompromised throughout the period of leadership transition. Autism s ecific counsellors: The Autism Hub's counselling Servi is delivered by six selfMplOyed counsellors. all of whom are fvlly qualffied and registered with either the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy {BACP} or the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society {NCPS). The service was initially established with three trainee counsellors, who completed their qualifications while undertaking student placements wilh the organisation. The counselling team includes individuals who are autistic, have lived experience, or possess an autism specialism. This expertise ensures that therapy is autism-infoThned. with appropriate adjustments implemented to meet the needs of each client. The service provides support for individuals to process their diagnosis, understand their autism, and develop strategies to manage anxiety.

Volunteers and staff provide support across key operational functions. including website content development, marketing and promotional design, autism training design and delivery, technical support, and administrative tssks. We maintain an autism-informed working environment that priorÉtises wellbeing, professional growth, and accessible development pathways. We also engage paid sessional workers to deliver defined activities such as workshops, training sessions, consultations, classes, and public speaking engagements. A number of these individuals first joined us as volunteers and have since transitioned into paid roles as their skills, confidence, and readiness developed. This progression pathway enables participants to access training, build transferable skills, and improve future employment prospects and personal independence. To ensure we can meet demand and sustain service quality, we continue to expand our delivery capacity through the growth of our staff team, volunteer base, and sessional workforce.

The organisation has maintsined strong cash levels. managing expenditures and investments in a way that negate the need for extemal debt funding. We have successfully secured multi- year grant funding from local authorities, alongside additional support from local community grant funders, contributing to greater financial resilience and improved for•iard planning.

ALAG autism hub ASrg$f London Arèa Group Grant Funding Positlon As indicated in the chart, two of our multi-year grants-the LBC Better Care Fund and the Islington Cripplegate Foundation-came to an end during this reporting period. together representing over 880/0 of our income. We are pleased to report that. following constructive work with LBC commissioners on a new report and funding application. we successfully secured a seven-year grant commencing on 1 April 2025. We also met with our funders at Cripplegate, who expressed strong Confiden in our progress and offered a new three-year multi-grant. Final figures for both funding awards will be confimied in the next reporting period. In the previous reporting period, we successfully reapplied for the LBI VCS multi-year grant and were awarded an increased amount compared with previous years. However. funding previously anticipated from the LBI Adult Social Care Commissioning team was not received, results'ng in some disruption to services available to Islington residents. Through continued advocacy, combined with the demonstrable needs of local autistic adults and the disparity in available funding between Ihe London Boroughs of Camden and Islington, the Islington Adult Social Care Commissioning team has now committed to awarding £200,000 over a three-year period for support to Islington residents. This funding will begin on 1 April 2025. Reserves and Income revenue- ALAGIAutism Hub maintains six months of unrestn'cted cash reserves to ensure our capacity to respond to any operational emergencies in a timely and effective manner. In the event that all funding ceased or restricted funds were withdrawn, we would be able to continue delivering core services for a minimum of six months. As grant funding has increased, we are also building our non-committed reserves proportionately with expenditure to ensure effective risk management. This position is reviewed on a quarterly basis. The organisation does not have any extemal debt funding in place. We continue to diversify and increase our income through donations, the delivery of bespoke autism training led by auts'stic facilitstors. and specialist consultation with extemal partners. ALAGIAutism Hub is activoly expanding this portfolio and broadening our training offer to a wide range of organisations, businesses, institutions, and charities.
ALAG autism hub Asporgor London Arna Group Emer in Themes As previously reported, the impact of the pandemic continues to be felt acutely by autistic adults. Heightened anxiety. increased social isolation. bereavement. disrupted routines, and reduced access to health and mental health servIS have combined with ongoing challenges in housing and employment. Rather than diminishing, these pressures have persisted in the years following the pandemic and have been fvrther exacerbated by the cost-of-living crisis and reduth'ons in welfare support. During this reporting period, we have observed a significant rise in complex housing issues. including affordability concerns. disrepair, and homelessness. Multiple health conditions and Co-occurring needs are becoming more visible, with a noticeable deterioration in mental health across our membership compared wilh previous years. We have also seen increased hospital admissions, worsening physical health outcomes, severe social isolation, and more complex support requirements. Our counsellors report that many autistic adults continue to experience high levels of anxiety and uncertainty related to finances. housing stability, social care provision, and both physical and mental health needs. These difficulties are compounded by lengthy waiting lists, service backlogs, and under-resourced statutory provision. Alarrningly, we have encountered instances where autistic adults have been denied access to crisis or mental health support solely on the basis of their diagnosis. As a result, community-based, user-led organisats'ons such as ALAGIAutism Hub are increasingly required to support individuals while they await statutory intervention or after support has been declined. This places greater demand on the voluntary and community sector and highlights the importance of ensuring sufficient resources, safeguarding oversight, and staff wellbeing to maintain safe, sustainable serrfices. Persistent inequalities in access to statutory services remain a significant challenge for autistic people. ALAGIAutism Hub is committed to advocating for improved pathways and working collaboratively with commissioners and service providers to address these inequities and enhance service accessibility. Despite these challenges, ALAGIAutism Hub continues to raise awareness of autism within local communities and across London. As we grow, we aim to further expand our reach, strengthen partnerships, and build capacity to sustain and develop this vitsl work. Our Work and Im Over the past year, our charity has continued to provide a cornprehensive range of specialist services, including counselling, peer support, peer-led activities, workshops, and advocacy. Through these initiatives, we have empowered autistic individuals to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. Our focus remains on promoting social and emotional well-being by fostering meaningful connections within local comrnunities. We have also supported individuals in understanding and coming to terms with their diagnosis through targeted counselling and structured peer-support groups. These services play a vital role in reducing isolation, enhancing self-awareness. and improving overall quality of life. act

Meeting topics were chosen collaboratively by our members, reflecting the issues most relevant to their lived experienS. Themes explored throughout the year included mental health and well-being, coping strategies, current research, and navigating support servIs. These meetings provided a safe and inclusive space for open discussion. peer connection, and shared learning.

This informal, pressure-free space enables individuals to connect, ask questions, and access support without barriers or expectations. Wellbeing Activities - In response to member feedback. our organisation has developed a varied programme of monthly wellbeing activities aimed at reducing social isolation and improving mental health outcomes. Activities include board game aftemoons, art workshops, photography sessions, and monthly walks at Kew Gardens. We have also organised group visits to relaxed or autism-friendly events such as the Science Museum, the Barbican's relaxed screenings. the Nutcracker perf0rrnan at the Royal Opera House, London Zoo, and the Transport Museum. These activities emerged through our Relaxed Spaces initiative and have been instrumental in helping participants build confidence. social connections, and a sense of belonging wrthin their communities.
ALAG ASrger London Arna Group autism hub Relaxed Spaces Newsletter- Launched in October 2022, our Relaxed Spaces Newsletter has become a comerstone of our community engagement work. Developed in response to the cost-of-living crisis, its purpose is to help autistic adults aCsS welcoming community spas, reduce social isolation, and manage the emotional and financial impact of spending more time at home.

Our counsellors continue to provide specialist. autism-infonned therapeutic support that helps individuals understand their diagnosis, manage anxiety, and develop tools for emotional resilience. Casework and Advocacy Support- Our advocacy service provides vital one-to-one support to individuals navigating complex systems such as benefits, housing, and adult social care. Many autistic adults stwggle to access the statutory support to which they are entitled, and we play an essential role in ensuring their voices are heard and their rights upheld. We work closely with external agencies and commissioned advocacy seniices to promote reasonable adjustments, contrit)ute to the development of autlsm-lnformed pathways, and provide guidance to professionals. We also raise awareness of autistic people's rights under the Autism Act 2009, empowering both service users and service providers to create more equitable systems. Autism Tralnlng - The Autism Hub and ALAG have continued to deliver bespoke. autism-led training to a wide range of organisations. services, charities. and community groups. These sessions are designed to increase understanding of autism and neurodiversity, improve accessibility, and equip participants with practical strategies to create more inclusive environments.

Through our 'A Day in the knfe..., initiative, we have worked with corporate partners including Take Two, Mastercard, and Sage to promote autism-informed workplace practices and broaden employment opportunities for autistic individuals. We also collaborate with community partners to deliver projects that foster inclusion and belonging. For example, as part of Google's annual Google Serve programme, volunteers worked alongside our team at Jean Stokes Community Centre to repaint the centre's main hall in preparation for a community exhibits'on. These collaborations not only strengthen relationships between autistic and non-autistic communities but also demonstrate the positive impact of colleciive ackn'on in creating more inclusive, understanding, and supportive spaces across society.
