Autism is not an illness or a disease. It is a lifelong neurodevelopmental difference. Autistic people are part of our communities, our families, our workforce, and our Health Board.

•         Autism is not the fault of parents or mothers.

•         Autism is not something to be “eradicated.”

•         Autistic people deserve respect, dignity, and inclusion.

•         Our Health Board values the strengths and contributions of our autistic staff and patients.

•         We are committed to providing safe, person-centred care and to tackling stigma wherever we find it.
