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

  • If the filmmakers intentions are as presented, then their educational efforts are laudable; NT ignorace and intolerance causes a great deal of distress to many on the spectrum.

    It was, however, naive to think that it was appropriate to advertise for child participation on this forum without agreement from site administration.

    For future reference it seems most appropriate that film-making dealing with the sensitive issues surrounding autism should be conducted with the support and oversight of a reputable regional or national Autism society.
