This approach can improve the poor experiences of autistic people accessing mental health care, something which is an urgent need given the disproportionately high incidence of mental health difficulties and suicidality.

I've signed Mencap's petition calling on Department of Health and Social Care to stop people with a learning disability and autistic people being detained in mental health hospitals when they could be living in the community with the right support. Will you sign too? secure.mencap.org.uk/WasteOfLives?r…

Sadly, we have had to close applications for this service in less than 24 hours because we've had 7 times the number of applications that we have places.

Grant funders, this is the level of unmet need.
National and local government, this is the level of unmet need.

An MP has called for the resignation of the three Warwickshire councillors accused of making offensive comments about children with SEND. The councillors have made somewhere of a rubbish apology. They should go, not wait to see if it blows over bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I have written a book, Human Rights and Social Care: Putting Rights into Practice. Find out more about this via my blog curiousgrapevine.wordpress.com or the C-Change Scotland c-change.org.uk #RightsIntoPractice #HumanRights #SocialCare

Great blog (as ever) from Wendy. Made me reflect on ‘gappers’ those people who can operate in the gap between the communities people live in & serviceland. It’s a vital but too rare role. Without it we fail to harness the assets in neighbourhoods & see services over reach. RF

#twittereps SALTS, educators, this is a must-listen. These selectively mute twins experienced racist bullying and ended up in a psychiatric hospital. One of the twins tells her story. Our formulations must include the wider societal context.
