“I cannot thank the Autism Support Ayrshire team enough, I was feeling what I can only describe as grief when I was told my child might be autistic. Since I contacted the team, I now have an understanding of what autism is and realise that it is not something to be frightened of. I have also been put in touch with so many useful local organisations that can help me and my family. I really don’t know where I would be without the team and all the help they have given me.”
