18-25 Autism Support Service
Thurrock Council
Thurrock Council seeks to commission an 18–25 Autism Support Service that enables young people with Autism to develop independent living skills, improve health and wellbeing, participate in their communities, and prepare for education or employment. The Programme will support a small cohort of young people with Autism who require intensive, personalised assistance, delivered through a blend of structured learning, community‑based activities, and family engagement. The appointed Provider will deliver a high‑quality, person‑centred service aligned with national and local priorities, helping participants build their skills across four core outcome areas: Independent Living; Health and Wellbeing; Community Participation / Inclusion (Friends and Relationships); and Education, Employment and Vocational Opportunities.
