Just to let you know I have deleted the original post and link about an online workshop for autistic women. Thanks for all your comments, your responses have been interesting and helpful. The woman running the workshop - who isn't herself autistic - asked me to take part in the day and I said 'no', SWAN is autistic led, that's one of our core principles so I really couldn't endorse something that isn't. I did offer to post the link here as I knew people would make up their own minds - which you have! However, I can see that posting the link looked like an endorsement from SWAN which I didn't really mean to do. Thanks again for taking the time to make your comments, all. Cat ...

Is there anyone who would like to chat to my sister. We are from south Wales but was recommended to you as a place that may be able to help. Janine is 46, very new to face book, has been known to attract the wrong kind of person she just wants to find frienship. Thank you x ...
Our next Glasgow SWAN meet-up will be on Friday 31st January between 12 -2pm in Glasgow City Centre. Please private message or email swan.scotland@gmail.com for further information and details of location.
*Young swan meet-up*
In addition to our usual monthly get together for adult women who are formally diagnosed or self identified as autistic we are also hosting our parallel group for autistic teenagers/young women aged 15+ on the same day and time & within the same location.
Any young women attending who are between the ages of 15 - 18 years old MUST be accompanied by a supporting female adult for the duration of participation in Young SWAN meet-up. Specific enquiries about this event can be addressed via the contact details given. We are confident that this opportunity to access peer support among the female autistic community will be of great benefit to those involved.
The meet ups are open to old friends and new and there is no commitment involved in coming along. We look forward to welcoming all who can attend our dual event.rony@swan 😀 ...
