Mission Statement
Autism Unlimited exists to support and empower people living with autism. We recognise the challenges for children, adults and their families. We will work with them as partners to find solutions and create opportunities through tailored learning and support.
About This Cause
Autism Unlimited has supported autistic children and young people for over 50 years. Parents created a school in a garden shed to help their autistic children enjoy a better education and learning experience. We now manage Portfield School & Sixth Form which provides specialist provision from early years through to 19. Portfield School is a parental school of choice, enjoys a good reputation and offers a person-centred therapy and enrichment programme. Rated ‘Good’ by OFSTED, the school is proud of its history but is continually looking forward. The curriculum offer is holistic and enables the self-confidence, resilience and self-advocacy of the students to bloom as well as allowing the individual to achieve accredited qualifications. In addition to academic achievement, we build emotional wellbeing and resilience and develop the students’ social and independence skills. We work in partnership with autistic people to identify all the opportunities available to them. In addition to Portfield School, we offer provision to 18-25 year olds through our ‘Futures’ programme. We support adults in residential or assisted living settings and work in partnership with autistic people to identify all the opportunities available to them. We also offer industry-recognised autism awareness training to businesses, parents and carers, and health professionals. We provide consistent, high quality specialist care, education and support to autistic children and adults throughout their lives. We continue to invest in the future with ambition and innovation. We believe in a world of unlimited possibilities for people living with autism.
