Other asd parents in Wimbledon or SW London

Hi all and merry xmas..

It's a challenge that we all share and talking about it is one way of feeling better. Im fed up with people I know in my life that cant even begin to imagine what an asd house is so its time to connect with like wise families. We live in Wimbledon and desperate to meet other asd parents. I have tried the NAS directory etc with no luck. Can someone advise...

many thanks
