East Dunbartonshire Information, Collaboration & Education around ASN
This network was formed in January 2023 due to the high demand for community support as CAMHS waiting lists increased. This network is run quarterly and the next dates can be found on HERE. Our network runs in partnership with the Local Area Co-ordinators
The network is for organisations and statutory sector not for individuals, however the groups listed in the ASN orgnisation tab below can be contacted by individuals and carers.
Our EDICE network is represented on the Autism Strategic partnership and has fed into the local consultations.
