Autism HWB

Autistic Health and Wellbeing

Autism Health and Wellbeing (AutismHWB) is a space for autistic people to share the things that they have found helpful and healing.

It was set up in 2019 by Florence Neville and Rhiannon Lloyd-Williams. In 2020 the team expanded to include Cassandra Nelson, Riah Person and Laura Z Weldon. Each of us are autistic individuals with an interest in how autistic people manage their own health and wellbeing.

All articles are written by autistic contributors and cover a range of topics describing strategies that help make their lives easier. If you are autistic (no clinical diagnosis necessary) and would like to join our contributors in sharing your knowledge, then we would love to hear from you!

For articles contributed by our knowledgeable autistic contributors, and researched through their own trial and error, check out our Blog
