Welcome to Autism Society
Inviting all students at the University of Birmingham, we are ecstatic to present Autism Society. For those students with neurodiverse conditions (especially ASD), this society will be by your side throughout your university journey to tackle non-academic issues you are facing and also provide a space to meet other students to form new friendships and talk about your experiences. For the neurotypical students reading this, do not be deterred; neurodiverse individuals are the most unique and inspiring people you can ever meet so it would be a shame to complete your studies at university without befriending any therefore you are welcomed and encouraged to come along too!
The goal of our society is to provide events where you feel welcomed, included and safe. We will try our best to ensure events are straightforward to travel to and all socials will be sober. We will try to hold some events in more niche yet quality places around Birmingham and hope in the future you feel comfortable returning to these places in your own time if you enjoy them.
Ultimately, we will try our best to put on events that are memorable, fun and unique because you all deserve it! You all have faced head-on hardships and obstacles throughout you life and despite your circumstances, powered through to grant yourself an amazing opportunity by going to university! We hope you buy a membership and come over to our events; see you there!
