Young People's Support

We support young people age 13-25, with a diagnosis of Autism and or ADHD, and also those who are on the waiting list for assessment.

If you are not on the waiting list you will need to contact the Neurodiversity Front Door Team or your School SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator) to request a referral for assessment. 

Core Needs Support

Working with the Neurodiversity Front Door Team and selected Schools, Matthew’s Hub offer support and advice at school on identifying needs and making reasonable adjustments, both at school and home. 

This service is for young people who are seeking an assessment for Autism/ADHD it is not for those already diagnosed.

Social Support

Matthew’s Hub offers social opportunities for young people with Autism and ADHD to help them build confidence, connections and essential life skills in a supportive environment. Many of these young people face challenges with communication, attention and social interaction, which can lead to isolation or low self-esteem. By creating safe and inclusive spaces where they can meet others, share interests and practice social skills, we promote a sense of belonging, emotional well-being and confidence. These opportunities not only reduce loneliness but also encourage understanding, celebrate individual strengths and help young people develop the social and independence skills they need to thrive in school, work and daily functioning.
