Monday 30 March, 2015

National Autism Campaigner Kevin Healey is calling on the Government on World Autism Awareness week

This week is World Autism Awareness Week, over 700,000 people are now affected by Autism in the UK.

Autism Campaigner Kevin Healey wants Autism to be on top of the political Agenda, and to be included in the manifesto for the Next Prime Minister.

Kevin Healey Said:

"I'm been inundated, on Social media, Parents contacting me saying they are at breaking point, Adults contacting me from all across the UK saying they can't get an Assessment for a formal Diagnoses of Autism, Parents contacting me about there young children and Adults been sent away too different parts of the UK to various mental health Units, because the system is simply not geared up to help thousands of people affected by Autism Across the UK.

we filmed the campaign short film which was filmed in London last weekend to highlight so many thousands of people asking for support and help, and hope that David Cameron and Ed Miliband will watch this Awareness campaign film during this week of World Autism Awareness week".

27 year old filmmaker Andrew Dobosz who has Asperger Syndrome, from Cambridge shot the campaign film in London last weekend, alongside Leading Autism Campaigner Kevin Healey who also lives with the condition.
