About
FASD Awareness was established in 2018 to support the FASD community and raise awareness of Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD). These two aims are met by providing support and friendship groups, activity days, education, training, and information to the FASD community and the wider population.
FASD Awareness is a family-focused organisation and is the essential bridge linking those with lived experience with clinicians and support services.
FASD Awareness is strongly committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of vulnerable children and adults.
