Health and Care Portsmouth have made a new training video. In the video, autistic people talk about what life is like for them in Portsmouth.
The video is about one hour long. It was made by a group called Autek. They created it after hearing from the Portsmouth Autism Community Forum, who wanted more autistic people to share their stories.
The video is for people who work with the public, like in shops, schools, or health services. It helps them understand what life is like for autistic people. It also helps them think about how they speak and act when autistic people come to them for help.
The video is a chance for workers and employers to learn about words and labels people use. It helps break down wrong ideas about what autistic people are like.
Watch time: 1 hour 7 minutes
