Is anyone here getting any help from NAS ?

Paull

Does anyone here get actually get any help from NAS ?

My experience is you ask for help and they send you a bucketload of PDF'S of other organisations. Am I wrong to have expected more ?

The chief executive gets paid 140 grand a year, is it right that someone can live in luxury on that kind of salary from charitable donations ? Not even counting the other 20 people on stupid salaries comes to over 2 million quid ...no doubt plus expenses.

I thought charities existed to help others but obviously they are more interested in helping themselves.

Parents

  • My personal gripe with the NAS, is before my daughter was diagnosed (but I 100% knew she was autistic) I reached out to them for help.  They would not help me because she did not have a piece of paper from a clinician agreeing that she was autistic.

    When are parents going to be believed?

    When are people going to be given support whilst they wait for a decrepit NHS to shorten the waiting lists for assessments?
