New research commissioned by @Autism_Alliance shows that we're at a breaking point, with over 75% of autistic adults reaching crisis because they can't access the right care. Things have to change. Read the new report: hubs.li/Q02bkPHB0 #BreakingPointCampaign
We’re thrilled and honoured that the team behind a first-of-its-kind clinical study of Brain in Hand has won the inaugural Team of the Year: Digital Mental Health award at the @rcpsych Awards. Thank you to everyone involved for all your hard work! hubs.li/Q02bkmNk0
This week on Wonkhe: As retention rates for autistic students are lower than any other disability group, Helen Guyatt explains what could be done to help - and what incentives there are for institutions to do so. @brain_in_hand wonkhe.com/blogs/the-case…
Children are waiting years for autism/ADHD assessments, putting them at greater risk of mental illness. We need to find ways to support people while they're waiting, before they end up in crisis. hubs.li/Q01Y1KYW0
And that's a wrap on the first in-person @NADP_UK Conference. Thanks to all our sponsors, presenters, Conference Committee, NADP Board, Advisers and Office Team. Thanks also to staff at @pentareading, really helpful. Now for a gin!
Is the autistic community benefitting from the potential of technology? Be sure to attend the London Autism Show to hear our CEO, Dr Louise Morpeth, share her insights. Happening this week! hubs.li/Q01Sr6lf0

Huge congratulations to the Brain in Hand crew who've been playing Minecraft all night long! It's hour 23 of 24, and they've raised a brilliant £540 in support of #AutisticaPlay. Still around 50 minutes left, so go and say hi: bit.ly/BiHcharity20
Of course, it's not all about #Minecraft - we're playing to support awareness and acceptance of autistic people the world over. BiH employee Jono has written a powerful piece about #representation and #acceptance, which is really worth a read: braininhand.co.uk/acceptance-and…
