Three Years On - Feeling The Impact.

We started our campaign three years ago this weekend and to mark the occasion we are releasing our new video ahead of our updated impact assessment (Feeling The Impact) in September.

We want to thank all of you, our 12,000+ supporters, across the UK for your continued support and for allowing us to use your images and words to aid in our campaigns for advocacy and better services for autistic people. 

"You've got the words to change a nation...if the truth has been forbidden, then we're breaking all the rules...

Let's get the TV and the radio to play our tune again, it's bout time we got some airplay of our version of events..."

Feeling The Impact

 

Are you feeling the impact of the cuts to LA 

budgets or changes to our benefit system?

It’s not just about money, many parents and carers are being placed under extreme pressure because of the cuts to budgets and changes to benefits.

How are the cuts and benefit changes impacting on your lives? Have you lost any services or do you have to fight to keep them? Have any of your front line professionals left leaving fewer people to work with more families? Are you feeling the impact of the 'bedroom tax'?

We at Act Now for Autism are in the process of updating our 2010 Impact Assessment Report. Our follow-on report ‘Feeling the Impact’ will be launched at The Autism Show in Manchester on Saturday 29th June. 

Would you be willing to write a short piece about how the cuts or benefit changes have impacted on your life? We don’t need names but we need to know the LA region as we would like to cover as much of the UK as we can. 

If you could help us with our new report please get in touch via email: mail@actnowforautism.co.uk
