Adult strategy

Mike Stanton

hi all,

not sure if this is the best place. Perhaps we need a category for campaigns. But now the government has published the statutory guidance for implementing the Adult Autism Strategy it would be good to share our experience of implementation around the country. In Cumbria we have a Cumbria Autism Partnership Board with NAS representation that is holding forums around the county to get participation from adults and carers. Nothing has happened yet. I will keep you posted.

  • There was a case of a Retired Soldier who got beatten up.

    One of the attackers got seven years and the other one four years.

    There was cheering from the Public Gallery when the sentences were given out by the Judge.  I am surprised that the people who cheered were not sent down for contempt.

    It  remarked at the end of the article that someone who actually killed an Autistic person got treated less harshly.

    I wonder if it is because a retired soldier is more important than an Autistic person or the fact that the Autistic man who died only got one punch.

    David.
