In the charity's own words
Jigsaw works with young people on the Autistic Spectrum who would like to develop social and lifeskills. This is done in a variety of environments that are aimed to provide opportunities for lifelong learning. We run youth club sessions, trips out and residential experiences. We provide a comfortable environment where young people can be themselves without fear of isolation, judgement and abuse.
