  • About Bristol Autism Project and FACE

    FACE (Foundation for Active Community Engagement) is a youth and community charity which is commissioned by Bristol City Council to provide Bristol Autism Project (BAP). Bristol Autism Project is a scheme to provide programmes of activities during the school holidays, Monday - Friday, excluding bank holidays. These programmes are exclusively for registered families to provide additional support during the holiday-times.
  • Who can join and how much does it cost?

    Children aged 4-18 who are either: diagnosed as autistic, are awaiting an autism assessment after a referral (on the pathway to diagnosis) or have social communication and interaction needs similar to autism. The autistic child in your family must live in Bristol City Council or be under Bristol Social Care. The entire family register and all siblings may then attend with the autistic child. A parent or trusted adult must attend every activity. It costs only £39 per year (or £3.25 per month) to join BAP - this can be paid in cash/card in person or via online bank transfer or direct debit. If a family cannot afford the registration fee they may opt out.
  • How does it work?

    The family or referring agency - with the family consent - fill in this Registration Form. Once registered the family will receive a welcome email or letter if they are not online. Before every holiday we will email the BAP programme and expression of interest form. Fill this in to request activities the family would like to do. We process the booking requests and inform you which activities you have been allocated. Turn up and have fun! On most activities there are waiting lists as we have over 500 families registered with BAP but we allocate spaces fairly and re-allocate spaces if there are cancellations.
  • What does BAP do?

    BAP provides an autism-friendly environment as much as possible for families to engage with others in similar situations. BAP provides opportunities for children to experience new sites and activities at an affordable cost, so the family can gain confidence in new places, and which the family can return to on their own in future. BAP also tries to educate and inform venues in Bristol to be more autism-friendly. During sessions, BAP staff members are there to offer support and encourage your family to engage with the activity. Many of our sessions are exclusive hire sessions, so only BAP families attend, some are public sites. Examples of our activities include: adventure playgrounds, sensory sessions, laser tag, forestry activities, soft play, boat rides, skate parks, cinema, farm visits, Lego, crafts and board games, roller skating, museum visits, bowling, teens only sessions, cooking activities, Gympanzees, horse care experiences, Clip n Climb, gymnastics free play sessions, and much more. Outside the holiday times we can signpost you to other local services. We have a closed Facebook group where members can also reach out to other parents for support.

  • Membership Fee

    The membership fee is £39 per year (or £3.25 per month) per family. If a family are unable to pay the annual membership fee, they can opt-out and do not have to pay the fee and can still sign-up to holiday activities. On our BAP survey last year, some families wished to have an option to 'pay it forward' for another family. Please select this option if it applies for you.
