Nominee Profile

Location: Salford
Welcome to A World UK, a non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting the autistic community. At The A World UK, we strive to create inclusive and supportive environments where individuals with autism can thrive and reach their full potential.

Our mission is to provide essential support and opportunities for individuals on the autism spectrum to enjoy fulfilling and enriching experiences. Through our various initiatives, we aim to promote inclusivity, acceptance, and understanding within society.

One of the ways we fulfil our mission is by organising funded holidays in the vibrant seaside town of Blackpool. These holidays offer autistic individuals and their families the chance to relax, unwind, and create cherished memories in a welcoming and accommodating environment.

Additionally, we arrange unforgettable days out at some of the UK's most popular attractions, including Gulliver's World, Eureka!, Diggerland, and many more. These takeovers allow autistic individuals to explore new places, try new activities, and socialise in a supportive setting.

In our commitment to providing holistic support, we also offer valuable opportunities for personal and skill development. Through partnerships with local colleges and community groups, we facilitate visits to our community stores, where young adults can gain practical life skills and valuable work experience in a supportive and nurturing environment.

At The A World UK, we believe in the power of community, acceptance, and empowerment. Together, we are working towards a world where autistic individuals are valued, respected, and celebrated for who they are.
