Autism is a lifelong developmental disability that affects how a person communicates with and relates to other people. It is estimated that in Telford and Wrekin, 1760 people have autism.
There is no cure for autism but early diagnosis and specialist support has been shown to greatly improve the quality of life of people with autism.
People with autism often have issues with sensory processing. They can either be over or under sensitive to any senses (sight, smell, touch, hearing, taste, balance and self-awareness).
