Hi all,
You may have seen mention of the Autism Action Network across the NAS website over the last couple of weeks. We're coming up to the closing date for applications to join so I wanted to let people know about the opportunity in the Community.
The Autism Action Network is a group of people committed to taking action in partnership with the NAS External Affairs Team, helping to lobby and campaign about local and national issues.
People who get involved will have a chance to develop campaigning skills, receive expert training and be supported in their work to raise autism awareness.
There are two levels of involvement, Ambassadors and Champions. Ambassador places are limited due to face to face training involved.
The closing date for Ambassadors in England and Northern Ireland is the 30th of September (this Friday) and for Scotland and Wales it's the 31st of October.
Lots more information is available on the Autism Action Network section of the website. If you'd like to be involved in campaigning please take a look, we'd love to have you involved.
Here's the linkage
