Hi. My name is Ella youth ambassador for TAB and this is my project ‘Our Story’.
I am creating this project to shine light on the extremely long waiting times for NHS funded Autism and ADHD Assessments in Oxfordshire. Currently both the adult Autism and ADHD services for a diagnosis are closed and have been for a long time because of how long the waiting list reached, so there is nowhere to get diagnosed as an adult in Oxfordshire.
The child and teen services also have long waiting lists.
I am doing this project to share mine and other people’s stories to show the world we are not just a statistic! We are real people on the other side of the referral form.
I want to be able to bring awareness around this.
We are asking people to come forward who would be happy to share their story on this subject. This would be a poster with your story written on it, plus a headshot style photo of you. These will be displayed on several occasions around different locations, and around local town centres.
We are carrying out interviews at 19 Bridge Street on 23rd and 30th April between 1:30-4:30pm to have a chat with those who would like to get involved and share their journey with the Autism and ADHD Wait Times in Oxfordshire. This time will also include taking your picture. Let’s shine some light on this subject and come together to make a change!
