Help shape national autism policy – share your views and experiences

9th May 2025

Avenues Group and Autism Hampshire are preparing a joint response to a national review of the Autism Act 2009 and the Government’s Autism Strategy – and we would really value your input.

Can you help us by completing our survey? This is an important opportunity to have your voice heard and help shape future government priorities.

You don’t need to answer every question – just the ones you feel comfortable with. You can write as much or as little as you like. Your responses will be submitted anonymously unless you give us permission to share your name.

Deadline: End of the day Tuesday 20th May

The questions in our survey focus on key areas of life for autistic people, including:

• Government priorities for improving autistic people’s lives
• Public understanding and inclusion in the community
• Access to healthcare and community support
• The quality of support and reducing the use of inpatient care

You’re also welcome to submit your own response directly to the House of Lords if you’d like to comment on other areas, such as education, employment, or the justice system. You can do this via: https://committees.parliament.uk/call-for-evidence...

Thank you for sharing your experiences and helping to shape a better future for autistic people.
