GoodSpace

Improving Quality of Life

GoodSpace is a twice-weekly programme for adults with moderate to severe autism who are currently not receiving post-18 services. Created with both clients and caregivers in mind, GoodSpace offers a safe and supportive environment where members can continue to grow, learn, and experience meaningful engagement beyond their school years.

At its core, GoodSpace is about connection, growth, and community. The programme creates space for:

Strengthening bonds between members through shared experiences

Exploring new interests and building practical life skills

Forming friendships and socialisation opportunities among clients and caregivers

"It’s something new for my child. I like that she has a chance to explore and experience new things."
"Goodspace has provided my son & helper many new learning opportunities. At the same time, it has also helped to keep my son occupied for the morning instead of just staying at home"
"Thank you GoodSpace for organising the activities! It is really engaging and interactive. The coaches are kind and patient. They always do their best to engage and expose the student. I thank you for their patience wholeheartedly. My son has benefited from the activities and is meaningfully engaged."
"Grateful to be in this program where my son can have activities with friends and I get to bond with him."
"Thank you for all your support! The program does engage my son while waiting for his post-18 program. He has in fact benefited from learning skills in art, swimming and other physical activity."
