Managing our own neurodivergence or disabilty as siblings
Being a sibling to an autistic person can bring a whole range of experiences, feelings and complexity to your life that it can be hard for others to relate to. Connecting with others who just ‘get’ what sibling life is like can help you to feel more confident and less isolated in your sibling role.
Who can join this group?
The group mainly focuses on siblings of autistic people who are verbal and who might need support in some areas of life, but not others. That’s because this is a specific experience that differs from other disabilities or neurodivergent conditions.
To join this group you need to:
- Be aged 18 or over
- Currently live in the UK
- Have a brother or sister who is autistic (includes Asperger syndrome)
- Enjoy meeting others!
