Autistic Adult Support Fund

The Autistic Adult Support Fund aims to help adults with an autism diagnosis, self-identified autistic adults, and their families and carers understand what neurodivergence means for them and improve their wellbeing. The fund supports organisations across Scotland to deliver a range of projects to meet these aims. Facilitated by Inspiring Scotland and funded by the Scottish Government, the Autistic Adult Support Fund builds on the work of a pilot which ran between 2020 and 2021 to provide post diagnostic support to autistic people. A new phase of funding will run from October 2025 to March 2028, with funding allocated to nine organisations working with autistic adults to support them, their families and carers in understanding neurodivergence and improving their overall wellbeing.
