GROVE

BEING ME is a 10-week online group experience for Autistic children and teenagers, facilitated by specialist Autistic Mentors and co-designed with our team of Young Leaders. It is only available with GROVE! Built upon the latest neuro-affirming research on Autistic experience, identity and wellbeing, BEING ME is a supportive online group that helps Autistic children understand autism and feel proud of who they are – all in a safe, supportive small group environment.

Children take part in gentle, semi-structured group sessions where they:

learn what autism means for them
explore their strengths and challenges
understand things like sensory differences
hear from and connect with other Autistic children and adults
build self-understanding, confidence and a positive Autistic identity
Sessions are calm, respectful and low-demand.

Children can speak, type, draw, stim, listen, or simply be present whilst building peer connection as their authentic selves.
