Bridging the Gap Together!

At Bridging the Gap Together! (BTGT!), we have been driven by a shared commitment to empowering families and individuals with Autism and other neurological conditions since our founding in 2016.

Our mission is to create a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone, regardless of their challenges, can thrive and achieve their full potential.

We take pride in our unique approach, where our team of passionate volunteers, many of whom are Neurodiverse, play a pivotal role in shaping our services. From the outset, we've focused on fostering personal growth and development within our team, offering mentoring opportunities to strengthen their skills and confidence. This enhances the quality of the services we deliver and creates an atmosphere of empowerment and mutual respect.

Through our work, we mirror the values of our partners and stand for Integrity, Teamwork, Community and Trust; we are dedicated to Bridging The Gap Together (hence the name) and ensuring that everyone - regardless of their background or abilities – can feel supported, valued, and included.

We are proud to be part of an ever-evolving journey that prioritises growth, collaboration, and positive change from within our team and the wider community we serve.


Limitations of Service

While Bridging the Gap Together!  Aims to provide as many themed training workshops as our funding permits. BTGT! is unable to:- 

• Help anyone directly access any services
• Intervene or help to resolve any issues parents/carers or young people may have.
• Provide an advocacy service.
• Offer any financial help or assistance.

However, where possible we will do our utmost to signpost young people, parents and carers to other appropriate agencies who may be able to offer them the individual support and guidance they may require.
