Northern Ireland – Autism

Supporting Autism in Northern Ireland

Praxis Care offers a wide range of specialist support services to people with autism and their families. We understand that Autism affects every individual differently and influences how a person communicates and relates to other people. Indeed people with Autism may see, experience and understand the world around them in a different way.

Praxis Care is committed to understanding each individual and the unique complexities which surround their diagnosis in order to provide bespoke accommodation and support tailored to the needs of each individual.

Services for Children

Praxis Care provides accommodation and support services for children and young people with a learning disability and/or autism, providing long term care or short breaks to help families continue to maintain their children at home. We recognise that every young person is unique and we work with families to understand their needs and translate that into support that is right for them.

We also have extensive experience working with young people who are making that, often difficult, transition to adulthood. We aim to offer assurance and optimism by designing the support package with the family and young person. Praxis Care staff are dedicated in helping each child reach their full potential and develop the skills required to transition into adulthood. Young people are supported to identify and develop their interests and be active citizens in their communities.

We were delighted to welcome members of the Praxis Care Board to Ballymena Supported Living Services, where they joined residents and staff for a tour and lunch hosted by our Senior Leadership Team.

Residents recently moved into their new apartments after relocating from Crumlin, and it’s already beginning to feel like home. 🏡💜

A big thank you to our team for the warm welcome and for the incredible support they've shown throughout this transition.

We were delighted to sponsor the bouncy castle at this year’s Dementia NI Charity Match at Dunmurry Rec FC, a brilliant free community event for a fantastic cause. ⚽

The day brought smiles to every corner of the pitch, with plenty of family-friendly fun.

After the final whistle, the celebrations continued with a BBQ, raffle and live music.

Thank you to everyone who came along! ⭐
