The pressures on public services is immense and this ongoing situation is making things worse. Time for proactive rather than reactive action. Please post ideas #autism #autistic
Living Autism@LivingAutismuk

An ex-teacher describes schools as 'brutal places' for #autistic children. The NHS is not coping with #autism assessment referrals. Autistic adults are underemployed. WE NEED A COMPLETE RETHINK to turn things around. Any ideas? heraldscotland.com/opinion/242339…

We know people diagnosed with ADHD and autism, known as #AuDHD, experience unique strengths and challenges. This article does a great job of shining a light on this complex intersection and the need for tailored support. What do you think? theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

We should not be waiting till someone is in mental health crisis before making a diagnostic referral. Please join our campaign, sign and share our petition #autism #ADHD
Living Autism@LivingAutismuk

Many adults are waiting for a diagnostic assessment for #autism and #ADHD. Waiting lists are long and in some areas extra barriers to referrals have been imposed. This causes distress and added mental health challenges. Support our campaign for assessments chng.it/vyZ6D8Hn8G
