The Telethon Holiday Makers Program (THMP) is a program for kids and teens run by Spectrum Space during the school holidays. The program will run a range of activities based on interest that our participants have identified, as well as fun excursions. This creates a natural social environment where participants have the opportunity to meet like-minded peers and have some new fun experiences along the way!
The THMP is run by qualified professionals with autism experience.
Please be aware that due to COVID-19, some changes have had to be made to THMP:
