About Us Formerly known as “Thorne House Services for Autism” we have over 20 years experience in providing care and support for people with autism and related conditions. We are an autism charity & we work nationally with over 26 purchasing authorities who support our work in a variety of ways and we have established excellent working relationships in partnership with them. Our core service offering includes Residential and Supported Living, Adult Learning, Domiciliary Care, Day Service Provision, Respite and Community Support. We have recently acquired a new Residential Service in Scarborough for 12 new clients and are tendering for new opportunities elsewhere across the north of England.
Increasingly our core offering has been extended as a consequence of responding to the needs of our present and future clients from developing a leading edge Person Centred Planning Approach. We now offer a dedicated Employment Agency for people with Aspergers Syndrome and have been awarded a Pathways to Work contract in partnership with A4e. We are planning further developments within the Employment market which will be announced soon. Our vision is to be the service of choice for people with autism and related communication conditions including people with learning and other disabilities.
