WELCOME TO
ANGELS SUPPORT GROUP

Angels supports families of autistic children and/or children who have ADHD (and those awaiting diagnosis). All Angels staff are parents of neurodivergent children.

Angels is an experience-led charity, based in Hertfordshire, which provides individualised, professional expertise and advice. We work alongside parents to build understanding of their children’s conditions, their rights, ensuring their needs are met at home, at school, and in the community. Our key aim is to maximise the individual potential of each child and young person.

  • Group meetings, workshops and individual support for parents/ carers
  • Find support
  • Share ideas, experiences and concerns
  • Reduce isolation
  • Help your child reach their potential
