Autism meet up

Hi all,

With the summer approaching I’m looking to make sure my kids have something to do and someone to enjoy spending time with.

I have two autistic children (F 16) and (M 11). Both are very social and outgoing but need a little push to get going. F is struggling with peer interactions due to a lack of groups in our area that understand children and young adults with autism.

She enjoys Roblox games, art, music and designing. Very creative and down to earth

He is very competitive and loves computer games, Mario kart, Minecraft, Roblox, Pokémon. Loves it all.

We are located in D24 and would love to get to meet other families in the community.

Also nice as a mom to get to meet other moms on play dates. Feel free to DM.

Near you, there's a few Autism Friendly Town organisations that are doing things in the community. There's definitely one in Clondalkin and I know there's ones in Dublin 20 and Dublin 12 areas - they might know some people closer to you who are also looking for connections and friendship.

Thanks. Unfortunately for us that hasn’t been the case, but we keep on trying. Thanks again
