Autism and Ageing.

I am fifty-six so I am now involved with the Autism and Ageing Campaign the National Autistic Society is doing.

I mentioned this campaign on the World Autism Support Network and got a reply from someone involved.

The right place is to discuss it in this Community.

There is not a space for campaigns so I was not sure where to mention this campaign.

It is important for people to realise that children do not grow out of their Autism.

If we live to a hundred we will still be Autistic.

That is why it is important for Doctors and Nurses and other people who work in the National Health Service are aware of Autism.

    Firstly I cannot call it any thing else as the Natationial Autistic Society are running a campaign called AUTISM AND AGEING.

    I think it is the correct words as that is what the campaign is about.

    Secondly any one over FIFTY can become involved with the campaign.

     

    Thirdly there should be a section in this community for NAS campaigns but there is not.

    Thanks for the last reply.
