In a joint project with Wiltshire Healthwatch, the experiences of more than 100 people were gathered to understand what it’s like to go for an appointment with a doctor or nurse, and what they think of other support that’s available.
The majority of the people we spoke to felt that there’s a lack of understanding about autism spectrum conditions, and of what can be done to alleviate the difficulties people experience.
Another key theme was the lack of services and groups for people with autism spectrum conditions, with most relying on support from family members.
