Lilac House

(Linked Independent Living and Advice Centre)

For the past 9 years, Autonomie (formally the Lilac Service) has supported hundreds of children and young people with disabilities. In 2018 we opened a new centre in south Belfast.

Lilac House delivers programmes on building self-confidence, life skills, networking to build friendships and even a chance to try independent living at purpose-designed units on the premises. To learn more about Lilac House click here.
