Ambitious about Autism is the national charity for children and young people with autism. We provide services, raise awareness and understanding, and influence policy. We exist to enable children and young people with autism to learn, thrive and achieve and through TreeHouse School we provide specialist education.

Our ambition is to make the ordinary possible for more children and young people with autism.
