For many Chinese autistic families, public spaces don’t feel safe — not because of autism, but because of judgement. 🌻 The sunflower lanyard is a quiet way to say: "I have a non-visible disability. All I ask for is a little patience and understanding."

Last week, @hazeltheartist attended an inspiring book launch! 📖 Rediscovered by Catherine Asta sheds light on the often-overlooked journey of late autism diagnosis, particularly among women. It's an insightful and empowering read we highly recommend!

My dog also on TV now! For me, this isn't just a headline or statistic—it’s my life, my journey & the journey of countless others who’ve faced the long, exhausting road. I know the frustration of waiting, the pain of feeling unheard, and the constant fight with system.
The number of children waiting for an autism or ADHD assessment in Wales could nearly triple to 61,000 over the next two years, a committee has heard itv.com/news/wales/2025-01-1…

Volunteering is not always easy, but moments like these remind us why we do it: to create change, to build connections, and to leave the world just a little bit better than we found it. Thank you once again for this honor @WCVACymru. #WelshCharitiesWeek #WelshCharityAwards

Today on #WorldMentalHealthDay, we want to remind our community that mental health matters. Autistic individuals often face unique challenges that can impact their well-being, from social pressures to sensory sensitivities. If you're struggling, know that you are not alone. ❤️
