PACT begun in 2012 as a group of parents who wanted to create a supportive organisation for Parents and families, The charity was founded in 2012 by a group of parents who wanted to improve education, health and social care services, and provide families with opportunities to thrive within an inclusive society.

 As our families grew and as more Neurodivergent Adults begun to contact us  we recently widened our remit to be ageless. So now people who identify as, are seeking a diagnosis for themselves or a child or want to learn more about Neurodiversity can access our organisation.

All of our staff and many of our trustees and Volunteers have lived experience of Autism / Neurodiversity.
