The Norfolk Autism Partnership
The All-age Norfolk Autism partnership was set up to respond to the Autism Act. It aims to help develop improved services for children, young people and adults who have, or who may be autistic.
The Norfolk Autism Partnership exists to help drive, inform and support delivery of the Norfolk All Age Autism Strategy 2024–2029. It brings together autistic people, parents, carers, professionals, voluntary organisations and statutory services to help shape priorities, influence decision-making and improve support, services and opportunities for autistic people in Norfolk.
How the Norfolk Autism Partnership works
The Norfolk Autism Partnership is made up of several groups, each with a different role in helping to shape, inform and support delivery of the Norfolk All Age Autism Strategy 2024–2029. Click on a group below to find out more.
The Norfolk Autism Partnership Board
The Norfolk Autism Partnership Board helps lead the work of the partnership and supports delivery of the Norfolk All Age Autism Strategy 2024–2029.
