by Janae ElisabethI've created a survey with the aim of creating a snapshot of our experiences as autistic people of the COVID-19 emergency response legislation and the guidelines and also to capture our concerns and questions around these going forwards. Please do fill this out if you can possibly, even if you have no direct experience with the police at this time as there are other questions I'm sure you could valuably answer. Many thanks in advance - and please share it on too. This is for those of you living in Scotland only, please. Catriona www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/SWAN-COVID-19legislationandguidelines/
