Great to welcome @DanielJHarrisUK to City Hall to discuss how we can support @NDinBusiness.

Lots of fantastic work being done to support neurodiversity in workplaces across London - and I’m delighted we’re working together to make London the #NeuroInclusive capital of the world.

Dear Autsy,
Has anyone else noticed that masking and socializing at this stage of the pandemic is harder than it was pre-lockdown?

I feel like I lost all my social skills that I’ve developed over the years.

We need stories about what it’s like to discover you’re autistic late in life.

We need to see relatable adults lose their entire-ass ability to emotionally regulate and act like children when their feelings are hurt.

Real People Figuring It Out and how it blows up your life.

@Sara_Rose_G Today marks one year since my autism diagnosis age 30, and poetically I just finished reading your book, Girl, that list of hopes for the autistic community at the end had me sobbing! Thank you, truly

Conversations about autism should be led by autistic voices. I did my best to represent #ActuallyAutistic #work experience in @HarvardBiz - the first article from an autistic point of view. #Neurodivergent #Neurodiversity #inclusion https://t.co/XFYK19NRZF
