Written by the company

The A World UK CIC is a non-profit organisation supporting the autistic community across the North of England. The A World UK receives no funding from outside sources, we rely solely on the generous donations of pre-loved items and the money donations from members of the public. The funds raised via the community stores and the text to donate service are used to by The A World UK to provide services to the autistic community and their families. Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition, we are proud to state that we support individuals of all ages. Unfortunately, far too many support abruptly stops when an individual reaches the age of 25, we understand and recognise that the individual will still require support regardless of their age!  Our aim is to help and support the Autistic Community through providing a variety of services, we currently offer funded holidays*, horse-riding sessions, and many more inclusive events which are held throughout the year.

The A world, a wonderful experience

The A world has been fantastic for our family, especially our little girl and I recommend becoming a member to anyone who has a child with autism. We’ve enjoyed some lovely days out with them to Gulliver’s world, Blackpool Zoo and BeWILDerwood.

Blackpool Zoo with The A World

The A World and Blackpool Zoo made it possible for my little boy to enjoy a trip to the zoo without being overwhelmed by crowds of people. It was lovely to enjoy a “normal” family experience, surrounded by families just like ours, with no judgement, no unkind comments or staring. Keep up the amazing work The A World, we are so grateful for you x

Such an amazing charity

The A World gives us an opportunity to try attending venues with no pressure. Being around families who are going through the same as you with no judgement is amazing. The latest was Blackpool Zoo. Al the staff were attentive and amazing. Loved the touch of the written banners rather than noisy microphone talk.

Blackpool Zoo

We had a wonderful family day on Saturday at Blackpool Zoo - it was an amazing take-over event and one with memories that will last a long time. Thank you so much to the A World UK CIC for organising these fantastic events and bringing experiences to those with autism.

Blackpool Zoo

Blackpool Zoo
Blackpool Zoo you were everything we were looking forward to and more! Aamir and all the family loved every aspect from the minute we arrived through to the minute we left. It was lovely how everyone was able to be themselves and many of our families were able to venture out when they otherwise couldn't even imagine a day trip out like this! Thank you The A World for your endless event opportunities!

Thank You A-World

It is always so lovely to go to an event knowing you are surrounded by people who understand what is is to live Autism.
Thank you A-World for giving families an opportunity to relax and be themselves.
The reduced rate tickets make it do-able for families who can only stay a while.
The smaller crowds means no queues to see animals, less noise and there is an overall less stress atmosphere.

It was a brilliant day and we managed to get some decent weather. It felt so calm walking around the zoo and it made all the difference for our day out. My son loved it and the addition of going into the play barn for a reduced rate was fantastic. Thank you so much

As a frequent attendee at the takeover…

As a frequent attendee at the takeover events they run, I can only thank them and say what an incredible job they do. Everything has been seamless at every stage. They do an incredible job and make our family feel safe and accepted. My one and only criticism is that we can't become members due to no shop being in our borough. I think I know why this restriction exists though and until then, I'll just donate the membership fee to them instead.
