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

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

  • Hi recombinantsocks 

    Just taking my lunch break, so I thought I'd write a quick reply.

    You're not being pedantic at all... What I meant to say is that we are not film makers (I am a qualified Art Psychotherapist and Catherine is a Behaviour Analyst). However, we are employing a film maker to shoot and edit a short educational video clip about Autism.

    The video clip will be used to educate students in mainstream primary schools about Autism.

    We hope that by involving and consulting with parents and children who have Autism, we will ensure that their voices are heard, their views take priority and that they are represented in the way they wish to be represented.

    Longman has made a some very useful comments and we will of course be ensuring that all our work is properly regulated- we are in the very early stages of setting up the social enterprise, so we still have lots to do and learn.

    It was really nice to read your message. 

    We look forward to demonstrating that we are genuine and that our project is designed to raise awareness of Autism in a lawful and sensitive manner.

    Have a great weekend
