After years of working in CAMHS, I kept seeing the same heart-breaking pattern. Families would feel relieved to finally get a diagnosis for their child – but then came the silence. No clear guidance, no autism-specific support, no one helping them answer the big questions: what does it mean to be different? how can we protect our child’s self-esteem and mental health through school struggles or friendship difficulties? Parents were left asking, what next? – often feeling anxious and alone and facing huge waiting lists for support.

​​​

Minds That Thrive was born out of my passion to change this — by offering gold-standard, timely, evidence-based support that helps children and families feel understood and to find a way forward. We offer support to parents, young people and schools directly, in a way that encompasses connection, understanding and empowerment.

As a social enterprise, we  also reinvest 100% of our profits into free autism support for UK schools and into education and healthcare for children worldwide. We’re proud to be creating a business that puts children first and believe that the future should belong to organisations that give back and reinvest in communities, ensuring that success is measured by the difference made, not simply the profit earned.
