Hi Wendy,
Whilst it's very uncertain at the moment we did produce a report 'Who Benefits' looking into the proposed changes to DLA and how that may affect people with autism.
There's a section for the report on the following page, including information on contacting your MP to discuss proposed changes -

You may also want to look at some of the coverage in the press in recent days. The Guardian have a story up today that looks at how one with children who have autism may be affected -
