Hi everyone,
We thought we'd create a discussion where people can say hello and introduce themselves.
You don't have to say something here but it'd be nice to get a chance to say hello
Please remember that you should not share personal details (such as emails or phone numbers) to protect your privacy.
And don't feel you have to introduce yourself, it's entirely up to you and please only share what you're comfortable with.
I'm mum to two sons aged 7 & 8 - the eldest has a diagnosis of ASD and ADHD. I'm looking forward to accessing this community for both personal and professional purposes.
I've been concerned recently at some ASD type 'groups' which have appeared on Facebook - largely set up by parents and used by parents. This is useful for basic support but there have been instances of unsafe advice given out - ie how to buy medications online which you might like to try on your child etc.....
As this group is NAS affiliated and moderated I am hopeful that this will be a much safer forum for parents to seek advice and support.
