• Support Well Beyond Diagnosis: Outreach, Connect Centres, supported living and residential homes, so a diagnosis can lead into ongoing support from the same organisation

• Regional Reach: Working across Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk

Assessment Process

Assessment and diagnosis are delivered by the charity's assessment service. Autism Anglia does not publish its assessment steps, appointment lengths, the diagnostic instruments it uses, or the registrations of its assessing clinicians: ask about these when you enquire.

Wider Support

Alongside assessment the charity runs Community Connect (free, ages 0 to 25), Connect Centres, outreach, residential homes, supported living, an Autism Alert Card and training programmes: an unusually broad offer for a diagnostic provider.

Medication and Right to Choose

Autism Anglia does not prescribe ADHD medication, so a diagnosis would need to be taken to a prescriber separately. It does not accept NHS Right to Choose referrals.
