Bringing autistic young people together!
The A Game is a free online community for young people aged 13-17 in the North East of England, who identify as autistic or AuDHD.
Our Discord server is a chill, neuro-affirming space where you can totally be yourself! Whether you're into gaming, art, memes, music, or the most random niche hobbies, you'll find awesome people to vibe with, share laughs, and build friendships in a community made for, and by, people like you.
We offer members of TAG:
Our goal is to empower young people to find their tribe, embrace their true selves and recognise their own greatness.
For more information check out our TAG Offer & Frequently Asked Questions or follow us on Facebook for info about in-person social meet ups!
We have established clear and simple guidelines for the group, to ensure that everyone understands the expectations for behaviour and communication.
Our online moderators are neurodivergent, knowledgeable about autism or have experience working with autistic young people. They help facilitate discussions and provide appropriate guidance.
Inclusivity in chat is encouraged to avoid alienation. Staff are able to help when misunderstanding/negativity occurs in chats. We particularly like to share neurodivergent memes.
Members can share their hobbies and interests, talents, and achievements to help build connection and foster a sense of belonging.
No pressure, no judgement!
Volunteers host online sessions or discussions to encourage social interaction and our in-person meet ups aim to facilitate better connection through fun, age appropriate activities.
We emphasise the importance of respecting personal boundaries and individual differences. We encourage members to communicate their preferences regarding social interactions and ensure that those preferences are respected by the group.
We share resources and content about autism, neurodiversity, and related topics. We encourage members to share their experiences and insights.
We check-in with quiet group members and provide a channel for reporting issues or contacting staff.
