University

David B

Hello My name is David Brickstock

I'm a 22 year old university Student currently studying TV and Radio at the University of Salford

For my web design project I decided to make a guide on life at university for people with autism

I figured i'd post it here as it seems the most appropriate place

If you a parent or person with autism looking for information about university life or are seeking any advice feel free to email me on the email page  Smile

  • Hi longman.

    I agree the NAS probably wont care.

    Dont get me wrong theres no bad feeling or negativity aimed at the NAS but surely to understand a condtion all areas of it must be explored and researched, atleast from my point of view i'd want to gather every bit of information avalible and develope a plan and guide research around this 'maybe this is just an AS view.

    A larger part of my point is that i'd never heard of the NAS until i'd seen my GP after hitting a brick wall and he sugested i may have ASD and to do my research, and so it goes on.

    I live in the North East of England and i'd never heard of the NAS and if someone said to me 'Autisum' i'd have said Rainman. Wheres the posters, bilboreds and adverts?

    If its a money issue a can't go near to without some charity with a bucket stopping me, if the was the issue why not send people out to and area some doing fund raising in different ways so concentrating on awareness, give people some information and ask them some questions, gather some data, calculate it and come up with a fund raising and awareness plan that can start to be roled out. I thought Charities were ran like businesses these days?

    Maybe this is a to simplistic view and i'm missing something?

    All the best and kind reguards Steven..
