Hello

Ok. Where to start here. We've just had a formal diagnosis today that our son Ethan is autistic. We were expecting it as he's non verbal but it's still hit us a little emotionally. 

We've come on here to try and find out "what happens next" and how we can help Ethan. Neither of us have experienced autism in our families before so have no previous knowledge to draw on.  Speech and Language are involved but are there resources he/we can access to try and progress this? 

And any nappy training tips for someone that doesn't find being wet (or worse) would be greatly appreciated.

We're Doncaster based. We're just trying to get our son the best start we can give him.
