Attitudes have improved, but more work to be done
The Island's Autism Liaison believes attitudes towards those on the spectrum have improved, but more work needs to be done.
This week is Autism Awareness Week, which aims to end the stigma surrounding autistic conditions.
Carole Williams is a former teacher and now works with the Island's schools to provide support for autistic pupils.
She says it's important to listen to those with autism:
'Deterrent' sentence imposed for ketamine importer
Several sailings at risk or cancelled due to adverse weather
Glencrutchery Road to close to northbound traffic
MHK's shock over Hospice announcement
