“We’re so thankful for the magical memories made during our Disneyland adventures for a second time! Thank you Spectrum!

From the wonder in our eyes watching fireworks light up Sleeping Beauty Castle to the laughter shared on thrilling rides, every moment has been pure joy. The enchantment of Disney has brought us closer together and filled our hearts with childlike wonder. These precious holiday memories will be treasured forever – thank you, Disneyland, for reminding us that magic is real when we’re together!”

“Just wanted to thank you for arranging The Wizard of Oz this afternoon. It was great for our son to be able to experience live theatre and for us to be able to enjoy it as a family!”

“Spectrum is amazing at providing support for families with Autism. I have been to several events….shows, afternoon tea with Santa, Clip and climb with my two children. I have really valued these as I struggle (realistically will not go as a solo adult) to take my children to events such as these as I do not know how my son will respond. The events spectrum arrange are more autism-friendly so less likely to result in challenging behaviour and are also in such a supportive environment, so that if he struggles people have my back. My daughter really benefits from these as without them she would miss out on these experiences as it is almost impossible to juggle time to take her by herself. The events are also positive for their relationship as they have shared happy experiences, which helps to balance the times when my son struggles. The Spectrum team are truly amazing and deserve all the backing in the world.”

“Spectrum has been an incredible lifeline for us. It has enabled our son to participate in events that he otherwise would have been too overwhelmed to do, including visiting the National Space Centre, seeing a pantomime, meeting Santa and strengthening his gross motor skills at Clip and Climb. As a family, it is great to join a group of people who all face similar challenges, and as parents, we have had the opportunity to meet others on a similar parenting journey purely as we have all been members of Spectrum. Thank you Spectrum!”

“Our first contact with Spectrum was for the Max Card service which has been really easy to complete and a really handy card to have especially for days out. Since then we have attended a few different sessions, a trip to Colchester Zoo and 2 pantomimes which we have thoroughly enjoyed. It allows us to feel less stressed when attending these events as we know the other parents understand our son’s situation. The Spectrum team are very friendly and helpful. Couldn’t recommend them enough.”

“Spectrum has been such a positive force in our lives, they’ve provided us with wonderful opportunities to connect with other families and to take part in events that could otherwise be quite challenging. We had a great time at Angelsey Abbey Winter Lights, as well as Clip n Climb and we’re looking forward to the new Spectrum Play sessions. Thanks for all your hard work!”

“Your provided support has been invaluable for our family”

“I just wanted to say an enormous THANK YOU for all of your assistance with the DLA renewal form, it seemed to take me forever to plough through it, but your support, advice and patience over Zoom was fabulous.”

“Thank you for the virtual coffee mornings they got me through lockdown and my time shielding!”

“Thank you for everything that you are doing for us!”

“I cannot thank you enough for your support. I received a letter saying they had received my DLA form today also! Take care and hopefully, we will meet again one day at a Spectrum event!”

“Thanks for your support and your emails I really really do appreciate it massively!”

“Myself and my partner Louisa have a 10-year-old son, named Leo. Leo was diagnosed with autism ASD in July 2014 at the age of 4. Louisa has been part of many online ASD support groups, one in particular on Facebook. It was here that Louisa heard about the Spectrum Max Card. Louisa signed up for the Max Card, which in turn, allowed her to become a member of the Spectrum Facebook group. This July (2020), Spectrum emailed Louisa to ask if Leo would like to be chosen to be a tester for their online Mine Craft server, which allows children with ASD to play safely online with other children. Leo was chosen and has since made a friend playing online. Leo says that he has enjoyed this experience very much. Thanks to Spectrum, Leo was given a chance to be part of something big and has made friends in the process.”

“Over the past two years, Ely College have been working with Spectrum Cambridge on a number of different events to encourage young people to help others and to support the fantastic work that the charity does within the local community.

The students at Ely College, and more specifically in Etheldreda House, have had the opportunity to enjoy regular visits from Spectrum Cambridge where they have been able to discuss information and learn of the activities they can get involved in throughout the year. This has been an excellent ongoing partnership that Etheldreda House strongly value.

Many of our students have attended Spectrum Cambridge events outside of school hours and always report their positive experience and the many skills they have been able to learn and develop.  The charity has always been present at events to support our students’ efforts in fundraising.  The communication with Spectrum Cambridge has always been professional, friendly and swift, making the organisation of activities stress-free.

I am extremely happy with the work that has been accomplished over the last two years and look forward to our continued relationship.”

“Thank you again. You and all the people from Spectrum are just amazing!!!”

“We are so very happy with all your hard work, and the way you have took care of our every need and issue.”

“Thank you for all the outstanding and amazing help and information you have given us through the last few weeks!”

“Thank you all ever so much for putting all these wonderful opportunities together for us all to enjoy, so much appreciated indeed!”

“Really good events and the organisers are so helpful.”

“Our first session today, Jack loved it so did his brothers as you can tell by Callum’s face in the pictures. Thank you so much, will defiantly be attending more sessions xx “

“Thank you so much for today, everything perfectly organised, we had lot of fun! 🤩 “

“Thank you so much for today, we all had a wonderful time this morning! Can’t wait for another session. The work you do is fabulous! x “

“Just wanted to say how much we appreciate the opportunities we have had from Spectrum Cambridge, we never would have contemplated places like Legoland before, or Clip n’ Climb before, but it’s proved a success for us with Euan, he’s even holding his birthday party at Clip n’ Climb on 1st September, at his request!  He would have been frightened at the thought a year ago!”
