Portsmouth Autism Community Forum - Autism training video

This training video was produced by Autek for Health and Care Portsmouth, following feedback from the Portsmouth Autism Community Forum (PACF), whose membership wanted to encourage autistic people living in Portsmouth to share their experiences.
The aim of the video is to give people working in public-facing professions (such as health care, hair and beauty, and retail) across the city an insight into life as an autistic person and encourage professionals to think about how they engage with autistic people when they visit services for support.
The video is an opportunity for employers and professionals to learn and discuss common terms and labels, helping to break down potential stereotypes and assumptions of what an autistic person may look or sound like.
