Autism Facts

















                                                   There are around 700,000 autistic people in the UK.









                                                           Approx. 50% of autistic people also have a learning disability
                                                           (i.e. a low IQ).








                                                           Autism is a hidden disability – you cannot always see or tell if

                                                           someone is autistic.







                                                    Only 16% of all autistic adults in the UK are in full-time, paid
                                                    employment.
