Autistic people are over represented in the PREVENT scheme. It is thought that 40-60% of those on the programme are autistic. This is shocking.

So this happened yesterday at the Autism and ADHD show in London:
My new book βThe young personβs guide to autistic burnoutβ completely sold out and I had a huge audience come hear my talk on AuDHD burnout.
Thank you ππ½ I am blown away!
Just wow π―

I was also the clown and entertainer- a way to avoid things and control the situation so I had more autonomy
Black people are 7 times more likely to die in police custody in the UK and goodness knows what that statistic is in the US
