Ok. Where are #ActuallyAutistic POC at? I understand that our autistic voice need to be heard, but I would like to hear more autistic people too. The autistic community need more representation of POC. I hate to say this, but #AutismIsTooWhite just like #DisabilityTooWhite. xitter.cf/AutismActually/status/…

We've just released the latest of our #AutisticaBriefs on employment. Unemployment rates are far too high amongst autistic people. We recommend that Government supports research into what works for autistic employees & employers. Download the briefing: autistica.org.uk/AutismStrat…

Hi @NeuroRebel, @KieranRose7, @milton_damian and the #actuallyAutistic community. I’m writing a blog post for @AspieWS about #neurodiversity. Do you think the concept as written by @singer_judy is understood by the #Autism community? #AskingAutistics

I'm a post graduate student at the University of Birmingham researching the views of autistic adults on perceptions & experiences of autism interventions. If you are over 18 years old with a diagnosis of autism/ Asperger's I would love to hear your views surveymonkey.com/r/5DW3KGB

Being autism aware means being mindful of your language. If a member of public asks a ticket officer when the next train is, DO NOT reply ''how long is a piece of string...''. Reply honestly in straight language, as this metaphoric expression can cause autistics a lot of anxiety,

Up to 3 in 10 autistic people also have epilepsy. It is one of our top research priorities. We need to know why autistic people are more likely to have epilepsy and how we can improve treatments. #EpilepsyAwareness autistica.org.uk/what-is-aut…

Speaking up against proposed WSCC cuts. Well done to Andrew Walker for speaking so passionately to the WSCC Health and Social Care Select Committee and sharing #Worthingspeakabouts poster about how the minimum income guarentee would affect people with learning disabilities.
