Autism Oxford UK- Prospectus

“It was a really wonderful thing to have a Peer Support person. That is a really lovely addition and she made me feel much more comfortable with the whole process instantly.”

“We’ve felt so supported and validated throughout the process, which after years of uncertainty, has been such an empowering experience. We are so blown away by the quality of and detail in the report, thank you for all the work that went into this.”

“This was a genuinely wonderful experience despite being something I was worried for. I am so used to the infantilism of autistic people, the out of date testing methods, the lack of autistic representation within autistic studies and diagnosis but despite that, everything was clearly understood in a way most of society fails to understand. The entire process felt very human, and I could genuinely feel the effort that went into making everything accommodated for those coming for a diagnosis. There’s a clear understanding of what is outdated in the system and instead of ignoring or justifying it, it is noted and addressed. As a whole, even if I only came in once, I could feel the effort being made to understand and it was something I will appreciate for a very long time to come.”
