Young people with HF Autism to participate in an awareness film clip

AWA

Dear Parents,

***EDITED 26.07.14*** 

Forum user Longman has pointed out that we need to obtain NAS apporoval before we invite parents and their children to take part in our film shoot on Friday 1st August. We are therefore removing the information about our plans and hope that we can contact the NAS forum Moderators over the weekend.

If anyone has any questions please don't hesitate to get in touch Smile

Abi and Catherine

    that's the sort of reasoning that baffles the heck out of me. Am i being pedantic? ;-)

    Well done longman for persuading them to do things properly, their post may well be well intentioned and genuine but it wasn't obviously so.

    i also raised the question with the moderators through the Feedback to NAS link so you weren't alone in your unease.

    At the end of the day we don't want to put insurmountable barriers in front of people who genuinely want to help people with ASD. the law is there to protect vulnerable people but not to prevent assistance. The balance needs to be right and the processes, which longman seems to know better than most, have to be followed.

    i hope that the OPs can show that they are genuine and that the project can help some more young people to overcome their problems.
