About us

Tailor Ed Foundation (SC039246) is a charity established in 2008. It was set up to teach daily living skills to children with autism. We work with families living in the city of Edinburgh with a child with autism up to the age of 12. We are funded by the Big Lottery, therefore our services are available to families for free. If you have any comments, questions or suggestions, please contact us.

As you are likely to be aware, we have a long wait list for our home based support service.  Given the length of this wait, we feel it’s no longer responsible or fair to accept new referrals. This will allow us to allocate more resources to providing support to the families already referred to us and waiting for our services.  We will review this decision in 6 months but, in the meantime ,we won’t be accepting new referrals.  

If you have been referred to Tailor Ed then all this should mean is that we can provide you with services more quickly.

If you have not yet submitted a referral then we are afraid we won’t be able to accept it for now, regardless of which services you wish to access.  The one exception to this is the autism friendly play sessions we offer in partnership with Time Twisters which continue to be open to any families who have a child with autism.
