South Wales UK Aspie

Hi I am a 42 year old male living in South Wales, near Swansea. I am a 3D Graphic Artist and work in engineering. I have just been diagnosed with ASD (Aspbergers) and would like to get in touch with similar people. Hopefully I will make new friends.

There is also a youth group called the enabled project and they work with young adults aged 14-25 with mixed needs autism down syndrome wheelchair userd etc and they really need volunteers. The cool thing is with enabled some of the paid staff have mixed needs as well which I think is great because you can use what you've got to help others like you in a way.
