Introduction

Hello Everyone

My name is Dan and I'm from Leeds, West Yorkshire.

I'm new to this forum and have just joined the National Autistic Society this morning. My wife used to work for a specialist college where she worked with young people on the spectrum.

Our son is almost 3 and has just been diagnosed with autism.  Although my wife and I do have a little experience, the reality is that we have just begun on a new journey of learning.

We look forward to exploring this forum and the NAS website and getting to know the other members. It's also our aim to get involved with some fundraising once we find our feet.

Kind Regards

Dan

    Hi Dan, welcome to the group. 
    My son was diagnosed aged 4 and I’m going through diagnosis currently. We feel quite fortunate that this was picked up quite early (for him anyway!) as we know a lot of people with older kids and who are really struggling to get diagnosed.
