Today’s guest is Max who talks about his lived experience of Autism, challenges stereotypes and talks about the importance of representation of Autism in the media. Max is a student at SOFEA and wanted to open up about his experiences in the hope he may help other's with their own feelings of being Autistic, but also to raise awareness to the 'neurotypical' community and ask what they can do to help support Autistic people more.
If you are affected by anything you hear in today's podcast here are some organisations that may be able to offer support:
Autism Family Support Oxfordshire
SOFEA also supports lots of people with Autism and other types of neurodivergence, and has many programmes that may be suitable. To find out more about how we could help visit our website here.
