Ambitious About Autism, a charity that supports young people with neurodiverse conditions, has released a new set of online resources for autistic people who are also LGBTQIA+. They say “The unique experience of being young, autistic and LGBTQ+ has often been overlooked. We recognise there hasn’t been enough LGBTQ+ specific resources in the autistic community. Some research suggests that gender identity and sexuality are more varied in autistic people. Being LGBTQ+ and autistic are two identities that co-exist, and being autistic does not change any LGBTQ + identity”. Their multi media resources include downloadable and printable documents, videos and blogs. For more information, pop along to www.ambitiousaboutautism.org.uk.
