What's Included
Everything The Awkward Social offers is designed around one simple principle — neurodivergent young people deserve a safe, fun, and genuinely supportive place to be themselves online and in the real world. Here's exactly what that looks like.
Supervised Gaming Sessions
Five nights a week, our trained and DBS checked moderators host supervised gaming sessions across Fortnite, Roblox, EAFC, Call of Duty and more. Every session has a trusted adult present. Every session is human and AI moderated. Your child is never alone in an unregulated space.
A Welcome Like No Other
Before your child joins a single session we get to know them. Their diagnosis, their sensitivities, what they love, what they find hard. We match them with the right group and the right games. And we tell them something important from day one — it's completely okay to just watch and listen until you're ready. No pressure. Ever.
Movie Nights
Every week we host a Teleparty movie night. Members can request what they want to watch. Got a favourite film? Want to watch something with a friend you've made in the community? Just ask. As long as it's age appropriate and available on a major streaming platform, we'll make it happen.
Birthdays
We know that neurodivergent young people are often the ones who don't get invited. Who watch other kids celebrate together. Not here. In The Awkward Social we make a big deal of every single birthday. Because everyone deserves to feel special and celebrated.
Parent Community
You're not just buying your child a safe space. You're joining a community yourself. A dedicated parent channel where you can talk to other parents who genuinely get it. Who are living the same reality. Who understand without you having to explain. Because the neurodivergent parenting journey can be incredibly isolating. It doesn't have to be.
Real World Events
For Full Members we organise real world events. Sporting events, family meetups, the Awkward Kickabout. We've taken young people to Premier League football, Twickenham, Wembley, Formula E, NBA London and more. Tickets are purchased separately at cost. What we provide is the trained, familiar support staff who make attendance actually possible for a neurodivergent young person. Because the ticket is one thing. Knowing someone you trust will be there is everything.
A Pathway Forward
The Awkward Social isn't just a place to have fun. It's a place to grow. As members become confident and comfortable, there are opportunities to become a host, a moderator, an onboarder. Real roles. Real responsibilities. And in time, real paid opportunities. Because building social capital is just the beginning. Economic participation is the goal.
