Help needs to be positive not negative if it is going to encourage people to work. They achieve the opposite of what they say they want when they threaten and sanction people.I love this @bookrabbit

Post Diagnostic Autism assessments to determine level of autism for autistic adults and appropriate support required must be made much more widely available on the NHS and other state bodies without “red tape” such as GP referrals and there must be a far more understanding and compassionate approach taken by the DWP towards autism issues

Post Diagnostic Autism assessments must become a basic legal requirement of all autism bodies and must become a basic legal entitlement of those diagnosed with autism, who are being prevented from moving forward with their lives after diagnosis - in the next few years, as more people are diagnosed with autism later in life, we are going to have a most serious situation with an ageing adult autistic population who will have very little or any appropriate support because of the point blank refusal of those in power to really understand the needs of those with autism
