Autism

Being autistic does not mean you have an illness or disease. It means your brain works in a different way from other people.

It's something you're born with or first appears when you're very young.

If you're autistic, you're autistic your whole life.

Autism is not a medical condition with treatments or a 'cure'. But some people need support to help them with certain things.

Find out more about Autism or search the directory to find local organisations that can help support people with autism.
