Autism – Putting the ‘Ability’ into Disability

A diagnosis of autism can often go hand in hand with a plethora of superb skills, such as pattern recognition and attention to detail. However, sadly, the employment figures for autistic people are depressingly low, with only around 1 in 5 in employment. The purpose of this episode, therefore, is to shine a light on the incredible abilities of those with an autism diagnosis.

Our Guests in This Episode:

Stephanie De Kramer – IT specialist, former auticon consultant and semi-pro wrestler
Bridget Young – Head Teacher at The Holmewood School
Zoey Clenshaw – Operations Executive at Harry Specters Chocolate
