Try the ASAN (Autistic Self Advocacy Network)! From what I've seen, they're really good!

Thanks for the recommendation will check them out later! Do they advocate for everyone on the spectrum? As well as advocate for both youth & adults on the spectrum also?

Sorry, I don't know any other UK-based orgs apart from NAS. They seem OK, but that might be because I've only skimmed the surface.
