Question of the Month: April 2024

by | News

We wanted to hear your thoughts on our Question of the month:
  • How can public services best meet the needs of autistic people?
The NHS says there is an “avalanche of need” over autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but the system in place to cope with increasing demand for assessments and treatments will not be able to cope.
