  • Hi Longman,

    Thanks for signing up to support, that's great.

    We've only 'soft launched' so far, which is why sign-up is low so far - the main promotional email is going out today so we'll see a big spike in support by this evening.

    The campaign is calling for action on two fronts:

    Firstly, to call upon all councils and NHS bodies to comply with their duties under the strategy and statutory guidance that came from the Autism Act.It has been 3 years since the strategy was published and adults with autism have waited long enough for the support they need.

    Secondly, to call upon the Government to do more to remove some of the barriers to local progress that we've identified in our research, including funding, guidance and monitoring.

    You can see a summary of the campaign in our infographic here: e-activist.com/.../action or can read more detail in our full report, which you can find at www.autism.org.uk/pfaresources

    Signing up is just the start, and it's going to take a lot of action to get progress on both of these fronts - we'll be coordinating action across the country throughout the year which we believe will lead to real change. And the more people who get behind us, the more chance we have - so please do encourage others you know to sign up!

    Thanks

    Tom
