It's a wonderful evening. Our research findings on @WritingEM's BtS program were interpreted by #autistic #writers via #poetry There may not be any more #creative way to co-disseminate research findings than this. Thanks @PsychologyNTU & funders & everyone involved @AutismND

[Lai-Sang Iao @DrLSIao]

🌈 How do you celebrate the #NeurodiversityWeek? I got the whole series of Geek Girl by @HolSmale, registered for our KE event with @WritingEM Rhyme & Reason, and previewed the wonderful anthology before you get it tomorrow by joining us. Come, join us! 🤩 https://t.co/3sfq33umel

On @Channel4News this eve, me, @AutisticGirls_ and others talking about the important issue of waiting lists for autism assessments https://t.co/Wz0oKGRCSN via @jackielongc4

[Kristie Patten @Kpk3P]

This is a hugely important study for non speaking autistic children and adults. Professionals need to listen and presume competence and not underestimate what many of us know is expected literacy! Thanks for your work!!! https://t.co/snxVgYNc5X

@moviebuffff85 @autisticrealms Agree. @AutisticNotts and @DrLSIao are going to start a project with and for late-diagnosed #autistic #adults to understand and address their post-diagnostic needs. Would you like to join us?

[Autistic Nottingham @AutisticNotts]

In September we are rolling our pre-diagnostic support!
In Nottingham/shire there are no fit-for-purpose services that support Autistic people awaiting diagnosis. As the country's first entirely Autistic-led autism charity, we're going to change that.

@TheNeuroHuman @autisticrealms @PsychologyNTU @ntu_research @AutisticNotts @AutismEastMids @NAITScotland @AutismPeterboro @AutismHelpful @autismtalknd This is also the reason why this late decision has not been reflected in the upfront. However, we thank you very much for your feedback. We'll remember this issue and make sure we will have a way to resolve it before we start our next project. Thanks also for you support.

[Autism & Neurodiversity Research at NTU @AutismND]

#AutisticBurnout matters to autistic people. We'd love to understand it better so that appropriate support will be available sooner. Link to more details https://t.co/ag03QLTAuz

@TheNeuroHuman @autisticrealms @PsychologyNTU @ntu_research @AutisticNotts @AutismEastMids @NAITScotland @AutismPeterboro @AutismHelpful @autismtalknd We're sorry that we couldn't include self identified autistic people for this survey because the platform we have permission to use has a strict quota on participant number. We had to make a late decision on including autistic people with a diagnosis only.
