Autistic people and their families are facing #AConstantFight for support. From diagnosis, to education, to healthcare, employment and beyond, as soon as one round ends, it feels like another starts.
We are hosting an event in parliament to make sure every MP understands the reality, impact and what they can do. Will you make sure your MP is there?
- Nearly nine in ten people wait longer than the recommended 3 months for an autism assessment
- More than one in four parents wait over three years to receive support for their child at school
- Only three in ten autistic people are in work
- 77% of autistic adults waiting for community care reach crisis point before they get help
- 80% of autistic adults report difficulty visiting a GP.
Nothing is working as it should, and autistic people are bearing the brunt of a broken system. This can’t go on. We need your help to show all MPs how much this means to their constituents. Can you help us by sending an invitation to your MP?
Thanks for taking action,
