Scottish Autism is dedicated to enabling autistic people to lead happy, healthy and fulfilling lives. When you support Scottish Autism, you are helping to enrich the lives of the estimated 56,000 autistic people across Scotland.
Every autistic person has their own unique qualities, skills and talents that enrich the lives of those around them. This past year has taught us the importance of staying connected and being understood.
Autism Awareness is only part of the journey. We need greater societal acceptance, understanding and ultimately appreciation of autistic people. Through this, our communities can become more inclusive and provide the best environment for everyone to flourish.
This Autism Awareness Month, join us and celebrate the amazing autistic people you know by leaving a message for your loved one. Your donations also help to continue providing vital support services for autistic people and their families, like our Autism Advice Line and online programme, Right Click.

Scottish Autism is Scotland’s national autism charity supporting autistic children, adults, their families, and health and social care professionals. Our mission is to enable autistic people to lead happy, healthy and fulfilling lives.
It is estimated that there are 56,000 autistic people in Scotland. Autism is a lifelong developmental condition that affects the way a person communicates, interacts and processes information.
We know that for many autistic people we have a system that fails to meets their rights and needs. Autistic children can experience unlawful exclusion from school, adults can face barriers to employment and there is still a long way to go to improve public understanding about the issues and struggles autistic individuals face in their daily lives. We are dedicated to enriching the lives of autistic people and enabling their voices to be heard.
