Give us your feedback

We would love to know more about what difference the Number 3 service has made to you. We are looking for some feedback from those who use Number 3 One Stop Shop, their families and/or any relevant professionals so that we can look at how the service is currently used, what people have achieved through using Number 3, and how we can improve on what we provide.

If you would be willing to meet one of the autism initiatives team, please contact us on 01738 449327 or perthoss@aiscotland.org.uk or let a staff member know.

Many thanks

On 20th May Number 3 celebrated a year of service to adults with autism spectrum condition in Perth & Kinross.

First Birthday Party

We celebrated our first birthday here at Number 3 with a Comic Book themed party.

Fancy dress costumes, a themed quiz, super hero treasure hunt and specially decorated cakes meant a great time was had by all.

For photos of some of the costumes and fun see the Gallery.

Jill walks 20km for Number 3

On 18th May 2014 One Stop Shop Manager, Jill Murdoch raised £150 by completing a 20km trek across the wilds of Perthshire. Along with her trusty companion, Barney the black lab, Jill completed “Jocks Road” in just under 7 hours.

The trek, from Braemar to Glen Doll started on a nice well laid path which quickly disappeared leaving open moorland and a steep climb followed by a narrow path as they descended into Glen Doll.

Jill would like to thank everyone who donated, the money will go towards providing services at Number 3.

For more photos see the Gallery section of this website.

Short Activity Breaks

We are joining up with the Edinburgh and Inverness One Stop Shops to provide 4  free short activity breaks over the next 12 months. Each break will consist of a 2 night stay at Cromdale Outdoor Centre near Grantown-on-Spey. There will be the opportunity to take part in various different outdoor activities, such as cycling, walking, archery and canoeing. It will also be a chance to spend a few nights away from home in a remote relaxing location. These breaks will be held in June, September and October this year and in March next year. There are limited spaces on these trips so please get in touch with Claire as soon as possible if you are interested in coming or would like any further information.
