Welcome to The Thomas Centre
Specialist Autistic Holiday Providers
We provide outstanding facilities for families and groups like yours, on a dedicated 25 acre site, in a safe and non-judgemental environment.
- Do you dread planning holidays because you cannot find a safe environment that is non-judgemental?
- Do you come away feeling more exhausted than when you arrived?
- Are you a parent of a child that has autism, epilepsy, tourettes or other challenging behaviours?
- Do you care for young people or adults that have these conditions and others, perhaps in wheelchairs?
- The Thomas Centre might just be the perfect place for people just like you to enjoy the break you need.

The Thomas Centre works on the following principles:
- We believe that holidays are for the whole family, for the whole group, not just those individuals with special needs.
(After all, we spend all our time planning for that person in our lives with special needs and we could all do with a break!)
- Why should those who care for those with special needs not be able to enjoy five star facilities?
(We are parents ourselves and we like to enjoy good quality facilities!)
- We believe the more that parents and carers can relax, the better able everyone feels when they return to life's battles.
(or put another way, if everyone has a good holiday, everyone's batteries are re-charged!)
We could not find these things when our children were younger.
So, we built The Thomas Centre.
