Tomorrow I will be filling in a Self Assessment Questionnaire form with my autism support worker.

My occupational therapist is trying to get the council to provide support (from my coucil's Autism Services - I don't want to say which borough as that could reveal my address) to me on top of what the NAS are doing. I am struggling to afford the NAS and may have to reduce how many hours I get supported for. Reduced support = detrimental to my health and safety.

Does anyone know what kind of support the council's Autism Services would provide?

I really need more hours as I cannot cope with most things the average NT adult would be fine with.

(I'm on government benefits by the way)
