Velora Autism Corner (VAC) was founded by Velora Levy Sailsman due to her own personal experience when she discovered her son, at the age of two years may have autism and he needed to be assessed. As a result of this, her whole life was turned upside down and she found herself leaning onto her teaching experience and her training and knowledge in special educational needs.
Mission
Our mission is to be the first and central point of contact for parents, social workers and health workers. Providing one to one support on an individualised request and the integral support required especially when a child is first assessed.

3. Creating an individualised Care Plan for parents to understand and present their Education Health Care Plan E.H.C.P.
4. To provide buddy-support for the young ones as they grow into adolescence and are in need of independence for shopping and social activities.
