A Children and Young People's autism support service is also available
The Children’s Community Autism Support Service (CCASS) can offer low level support, focussing on understanding, communication, sensory integration, processing, behaviour, self-esteem, and daily routines and activities.
The CCASS service is for children and young people (up until their 19th birthday) who are on the neurodevelopmental waiting list for an autism diagnosis, or who have previously received a diagnosis but require support, and their families.
The service is not open to anyone working with CAMHS/ RISE for therapeutic work or social care/early help or a family support worker.
