Kerise Vowles-Myers
"Communication and empathy were huge issues when Daniel and I first got together seven years ago."

Callum and Alison McBride
"Autism can be a gift because it can really help to give you that extra will-power, and you can get into things a lot more than many non-autistic people."

Kevin and Andy
"The only thing that will really help Andy at the moment is a return to normality - even if it’s a different normal to the one we had before."
