AUTISM has historically been under-diagnosed in girls and women, leaving many to grow up without the support, understanding, or resources they need.

For all the nerdy girls, the loud and funny girls, the quiet gamer girls, the “Manic Pixie Dream Girls”, and all those who feel they don’t quite fit any label, the Queens Hall Narberth presents Science of Autism and Women.

In this inclusive talk on Thursday, January 23, Dr Gemma Williams draws on the latest autism research and her own lived experience to shed light on what it means to be an autistic woman or girl, and why so many have flown under the radar.

Doors open at 7pm. Suitable for ages 16 and above.

On Friday, January 24 there are exciting Open Mic and Youth Open Mic events at the Queens Hall. We’ll bring you more details in next week’s issue.

Then on Saturday, January 25, the Aquarian Party is back for 2025!

The standing event strictly 18+, with a Challenge 25 policy and ID required.

Glastonbury and Isle of Wight headliners Dr Meaker splice dirt and soul to fire up the sound system.

Their high octane, award winning live show is considered to be the world’s best live drum & bass act, combining amazing soul vocalists, a fiery brass section, heavy rhythm section with earth shattering bass synths and samples. The band delivers a magical, hyperactive energy to every stage, always embracing the crowd and creating a wonderful synergy.

To end the month with a brilliant night out in Pembrokeshire, Faulty Towers: The Dining Experience returns for Thursday, January 30.

Become part of the action as Basil, Sybil and Manuel serve up mayhem on a plate alongside a 3-course meal and two hours of non-stop laughter. Expect nothing short of guaranteed fun and a brilliant night out as you climb inside the BBC’s iconic TV show. Over 70 per cent improvised, this is the completely immersive and highly interactive comedy spectacular where anything can happen… and usually does!
