The outbreak of coronavirus has caused a lot of uncertainty in the world and has meant we’ve had to change the way we work. As such, we wanted to advise you of some of the effects that this will have on our membership scheme:

At present, we are still able to send physical copies of Your Autism to your household, four times a year. We will do our best to notify you if this situation changes.
We are still able to send renewal reminders related to your membership via post. We will do our best to notify you of any changes to this situation.
We will continue to send e-communications related to your membership as well as information about our wider work, where we have permission to contact you via email.

If you have recently joined as a member, please be advised that we are currently unable to send welcome packs to new members via post. We will continue to send welcome communications via email, where we have permission to contact you in this way.
