The perspective of an actually autistic adult
Yes, we exist
What happens to autistic children? We grow up into autistic adults. Lots of the support and information out there is tailored towards autistic children, but when we grow up this support and understanding falls away. I'm here to try and change that.
I am an associate trainer with The Brain Charity, delivering online and in person neurodiversity training for workplaces.
I am available to give talks on my lived experience, answer questions and provide insight into the autistic experience and appear on panels at events (in-person and virtually).
I also speak on, and contribute to Autistic Radio (all links below).
Read my "about" section for more information including why I use the words "actually autistic".
