Three Rivers Support for Autism offers specifically designed services to adults with AutismSpectrum Disorder, complex needs, and challenging behaviour who require care and support in a progressive, life-long learning environment. We provide supported living for people with autism and other services, with resources and opportunities that enable individuals to maximise their strengths through our support. We help them to live in a safe, motivating, and adapting environment. The support we provide is individualised and person-centred.

We provide parents and carers with an understanding of the disorder and reassure them that there are positive steps they can take to address the developmental needs of an adult with autism. Challenging behaviour exhibited by people on the autism spectrum is usually an attempt to communicate their feelings or to cope with their own anxieties. Understanding the causes of such behaviour allows parents and carers to develop corresponding solutions and strategies to effectively manage them.

Our aim is to provide our service users and visitors with a low-arousal environment and a good understanding of autism when they walk through our doors. We offer supported living services in multiple locations.

We are committed to the use of non-aversive approaches in the management of behaviours, based on a Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) model. Staff have the necessary training to support service users with behaviour that challenge, should there be a danger to themselves or others.
