Diagonal Alternatives is a specialist agency, based at Disability North at the Dene Centre, and providing expert support to people who need assistance to live independently at home.

They are developing a new short break at home service for children and adults affected by Autism.  As part of their research, they are holding a focus group on 19th September for families who are, or have been, affected by Autism.

The aim is to test out the service design, and use the feedback to further develop the proposed service.

You may know of families or individuals who would like to participate, and may like to attend yourself.  

Please do contact Maria Hall on 0191 467 0007 for anything further at this stage, and please let Maria know if you would like to attend.
