We know that anxiety can be a huge challenge for the autistic community. That's why we developed the Molehill Mountain app so people like Alison and her autistic daughter Naomi can use it together to help understand and manage Naomi's anxiety. Learn more: autistica.org.uk/molehill-mo…
Mother (Alison) and daughter (Naomi) pictured smiling together in the right hand side of the image, alongside a quote that says: "We’d sit up in bed every evening and go through her daily diary in the app. It helped me to understand how she was feeling and the daily tips helped her to understand herself better too." - Alison, Naomi's mum.
