Celebrating World Autism Understanding Day- Wednesday 2 April
Autism Understanding Day is a celebration of the neurodivergent world that we live in. No two brains are identical and each person has their own signature strengths and areas that they are working on as part of their own personal journey. We celebrate the many strengths that Autistic people have including attention to detail, visual perception, creative and artistic talents, mathematical and technical abilities and commend the contribution that Autistic people across the globe have made through their expertise and innovation. Today, and everyday, we celebrate the value that difference brings to colour our world. With simple adjustments, understanding and the offer a helping hand to a classmate or colleague, people on the spectrum can thrive in our communities.
