Hash tag name ideas needed for Twitter Campaign.....all welcome

. over 8 years ago

I am trying to up the profile of adults with ASD (particularly women....as I am biased!) and would be interested to know what you would call the hashtag? This is on the back of the Chris Packham tv programme. I have contacted the campaigns team of NAS, Channel 4 programme commissioners and received positive feedback from Laura James or her efforts in making our voice a little louder!

Like the recent #MeToo campaign highlighting sexual harassment ...do you think that something re ASD would help?

??????

you can see why I am asking for help!

Thank you

I don't use Twitter so don't know how all that works. I'd steer clear, though, of anything with 'weirdo' in it, or any other such derogatory tag. I'm also a bit picky about it's being labelled a disorder, though I can understand why some would disagree. Something that indicates difference or uniqueness, sure - but not in a derogatory sense. Even #thisbirdcantsing sounds negative. It can sing - just differently!

I take it you can handle the exposure of twitter? I thought I could on Instagram and I was so happy that my work was being seen and appreciated but it was only a little over a year before the communication demands outweighed the positives. In no man's land now. XXX
