What is Autism

Autism is a Neuro Developmental condition. This means that a person’s brain develops different from other people. Each Autistic person is unique and so is the way they experience the world. There is no blood test for Autism, it is diagnosed through a series of assessments, looking at things like

• the way a person perceives the sensory world

• the way a person communicates with others

• The way a person makes sense of the social world around them.

A great video that explains Autism from all ages is this first broadcast on the BBC and presented by “ Rosie King”
