Just got back from a follow-up Diagnosis Appointment.Was given information on Applying for an Autistic alert card to carry on your Person in times of crises.Children are also eligible.The idea being that if you find yourself in a situation where you are overwhelmend etc you can show this card.It is recognised by the Emergency Services also.Just wondered if you have one,or if not here is the link to apply.www.autism-anglia.org.uk/apply-for-your-first-card
I managed to attain a travel pass and disabled railcard, so I wasn’t certain that I need to get one at that point, I haven’t really thought about it for informational reasons..

Was this on the basis of just the autism assessment?
Autism confirmation letter.You have to provide proof of your Diagnosis letter.
Well that’s not exactly true, the report itself was 24 pages long, it was the breakdown that was 12 pages..
So it’s a lot easier to agree on the nature and severity of a condition with a specialist in mental-health, that it is with a civil body, and it is always going to help the civil-body to make a correct decision, if the professional clearly confirms the facts in writing.
I had had a 12 page report written with my confirmation, which more-keenly defined as a result of the level of discussion I had with the diagnostician, as I was familiar with the her jargon..
A clear and concise breakdown by a professional is always going to assist an assessor with there consideration for various awards.
