THIS THREAD IS JUST FOR ADULTS WITH AUTISM, AUTISTIC SPECTRUM DISORDERS AND CONDITIONS & THEIR PARENTS/CARERS ONLY

ANYTHING ELSE POSTED ON HERE WILL BE DELETED BY THE ADMINISTRATOR

AS TASCA WORKS WITH THE AUTISM STRATEGY GROUP IN TAMESIDE, THIS THREAD COULD BE A GOOD PLACE TO TRY AND INFLUENCE ON HOW TO IMPROVE OR TRY TO CHANGE THE WAY SERVICES AT PRESENT WORK.

IF THIS THREAD IS A SUCCESS, WE COULD LOOK AT STARTING A SERVICE WITH A FACEBOOK PAGE WHERE PEOPLE COULD MEET ONLINE AND DISCUSS AUTISM RELATED ISSUES EFFECTING AUTISTIC ADULTS WITHIN TAMESIDE.

ALL COMMENTS WILL BE MONITORED AND ANY COMMENT THE ADMINISTRATOR FEELS IS NOT APPRIOPIATE WILL BE DELETED.

At what age does a person make the transition from child to adult as far as local services are concerned? Only asking since my son is approaching his sixteenth birthday and has had to reapply for DLA as an adult.
