Karen Mills
Charity Founder & Director
Karen started the charity in 2008 following the diagnosis of her youngest son. In 2010, her eldest son received his diagnosis and then in 2018 she received her own autism diagnosis. Since then, she has been the driving force behind the charity whilst still maintaining the personal, family-like feeling which our AP families know and love.
Karen has extensive knowledge of autism and related conditions, both professionally and personally and along with Team AP attends a variety of training and workshops to further their development and understanding.
Since the beginning, Karen has been involved with thousands of neurodiverse people and their families. She is hugely proud of the fantastic diverse team that provide the Charity service on a daily basis.
