Our Story

The Autism Adventure support hub was set up by Paul, a former university lecturer and father of an autistic boy, William. 

From his early years, William has faced many challenges, including serious epilepsy and difficulties attending nursery and school. In 2022 Paul left his career to provide more support for William. At this time Paul began developing The Autism Adventure, initially as a space for sharing personal experience through TikTok videos, and later expanding to other platforms such as YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, aiming to providing guidance to others in relatable situations. 

Since 2023, The Autism Adventure has primarily focused on providing educational support, including specialist tutoring, to neurodivergent students. However, our roots in supporting others through sharing and connecting are still strong, as can be seen from our social media presence (see our Linktree).

On this page you can learn more about our family's challenging journey. Ultimately this is a story of hope, shaped by William's determination to live life on his own terms, despite difficulties faced.
