Disability Advisory and Support Service and University of Manchester Assessment Centre


Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) Support

We provide support for students with a large range of conditions that can affect their University life, including students who have any Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).

Our lunchtime social group

During term time, we run a weekly lunch time gathering of students with ASC. This takes place at 1PM on Tuesdays, meeting at the Disability Advisory and Support Service.

It’s a great opportunity for you to meet other students that are on the spectrum and share your experiences.

Book a Quick Query appointment or contact us to find out more.
