Afte seeing another request for participants in research about ASC in young people, I thought 'again, why is there never anything aimed at people my age?' There are so many of us latelings here and I feel that we're being forgotten AGAIN, as we have through so much of our lives.
I was wondering if there would be any interest in writing a joint letter to research organisations asking for research into our difficulties and experiences and as we move into old age how that will affect the services we recieve, from what I can see organisations who deal with older people haven't a clue about autism. This needs to change.
How about it folks? I'm happy to write the letter, but would love to include your concerns, to do it as a group, a group will have more power, by weight of numbers alone, but also because we experience the world differently. I would of course post the proposed letter here for your comments before sending it
