Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition. It affects how people experience, interact with, and relate to the world around them. Autism affects people differently – which is why there’s a common saying: “If you’ve met one Autistic person, you’ve met one Autistic person.”

Autistic people have different experiences and need different levels of support.

There are many misunderstandings about autism that can be harmful, and these can make it harder for Autistic people to access the support they need.

Here are some facts about autism that are often misunderstood:
🧠 Most Autistic people want to make friends, though some may find this difficult.
🧠 Autistic people experience the same range of emotions as other people, they may just express them differently.
🧠 Autism is defined by differences in social communication and behaviours, not intelligence. Intellectual disability or high intelligence may co occur with autism.
🧠 There is no cure for autism, but Autistic people can develop skills for life with the right support.

Autistic people have great strengths which should be celebrated. These include:
🧠 Noticing patterns, details, or inconsistencies that others may miss.
🧠 Deep focus and persistence, particularly when working on areas of interest.
🧠 Honesty, integrity, and direct communication, which can support trust and clarity in relationships.

Extreme heat can make you feel unwell and may lead to dangerous heat-related illnesses. Symptoms of heat-related illnesses include dizziness, headaches, nausea, thirst, or vomiting.

To stay safe, drink plenty of water and avoid going outside during the hottest parts of the day. Check in on loved ones regularly, especially older adults and pregnant people. Keep cool indoors with a fan or air-conditioner.

Remember to wear light-coloured, loose-fitting clothing and, if you’re going outside, wear a hat, sunglasses and plenty of SPF 50+ sunscreen.
