    Hi! 
    Speaking from experience, a lot of us fall through the cracks. 
    Does your son have an EHCP?
    Is he still in education?
    What help do you need? what area are you in and what services have you already tried to access?
    If you want to shoot me a message over I can see if I can point you in the right direction for some more help :)
