About this Event

Welcome to the Redditch Craft Group - DIY Sensory Items for Autistic Adults

Our Redditch Craft Group is a safe and trusted space for autistic adults living in Herefordshire and Worcestershire to socialise and communicate with one another.

We will provide tea, coffee and biscuits but please do let us know if you have any allergies or dietary requirements!

This group is designed for anyone interested in making practical, comforting, and engaging sensory materials that can support wellbeing, focus, and relaxation. During the session, we’ll work on a range of simple DIY sensory projects such as fidget items, textured crafts, calming tools, and other creative pieces. No previous crafting experience is needed – guidance and ideas will be available, and everyone is encouraged to work at their own pace.

If you would like further information about the location of our group please get in touch with us and we can send across an information document we have put together including information and photos about the venue as well as travel information.

Booking is essential! We have limited spaces and would hate to turn anyone away. We also politely ask you to make us aware of any medical conditions you may have. Should any of these impact your participation within the group, Autism West Midlands reserves the right to work alongside you and implement a risk assessment to ensure the safety of yourself, other members of the group and the staff.

Please note: different members of the group are at different stages within understanding their autism and working through their mental health, which may display as physical, emotional and mental indicators of this, if you are concerned, please talk to a member of staff
