I saw an article on the BBC today
Specialist ADHD services for adults in England are stopping taking on new patients as they struggle to cope with demand, a BBC investigation has shown.
The BBC has identified 15 local areas that have closed waiting lists and another 31 that have introduced tighter criteria, making it more difficult to access support.
From https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4gpl150ze4o
There are nearly twice as many ADHD people as autists so when a service for a larger neurodivergent group like this is being restricted it does not bode well for a smaller minority like autists.
Do you think that encouraging a shift from just general support to helping us get back into the workforce would be a good way to encourage greater funding for these services? In theory it should be at least partically self funding through tax revenue.
If there are other ways you can think of to encourage them to spend on us without getting something in return then I would love to hear them,
