About this service
For parents with children within the autistic spectrum.
Provides information for individual needs, members meetings and speakers.
The idea for a support group for parents of children within the Autistic spectrum has been around in Bury for a good few years.
In December 2001 a public meeting took place and from that meeting BAPS was formed. We are interested in issues affecting people with autism, their carers, relatives and friends, directly or indirectly.
What is it all about?
BAPS aims to ensure that all people with autism are understood, valued and enabled to live happily, allowed to explore their creative potential and enjoy their own interests, to enrich and fulfil their lives.
“I want to grow up in a world where I’ll achieve my full potential in areas of personal interest and for satisfaction. A world where I’ll feel wanted, be loved and protected from harm. I want a future without exclusion, with time to enjoy my life.”
BAPS believes all those involved with the care of autistic children and adults should receive the help and support they need to continue to do so.
Our Objectives
To ensure that all children/adults within the Autistic spectrum and their carers/parents receive the appropriate help from :
a) The Local Education and Health Providers.
b) The Local Council.
c) The State and it’s Emanations.
To monitor local and national government services so that correct provision is being provided.
To continue to raise public and professional awareness of autistic spectrum conditions.
To provide information on ways of coping with life’s challenges.
