lsw146 Report post Posted March 3, 2011 Tagged this info onto a previous post but thought I would share here that after 10 years accessing CAMHS my DD finally has an Aspergers diagnosis. Sad that she may have missed out on early support and understanding but really happy and hopeful that she can understand herself better now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trekster Report post Posted March 3, 2011 Congratulations on getting the diagnosis for your daughter. I put your location into the search engine on the NAS website http://www.autism.org.uk/directory/search-results/pg=1.aspx to find out whats happening in your area. Once she reaches 18 there are some NAS social groups she can access; * County Durham * East Lancashire * Lancaster * North West Cumbria * Scarborough * Tyne and Wear * Manchester * Salford. Find out more If you are interested in joining any of the above groups, please contact: The National Autistic Society Anglo House Chapel Road Northenden Manchester M22 4JN Tel: 0161 945 6830 Email: northsocialgroups@nas.org.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lsw146 Report post Posted March 3, 2011 Thanks Trekster. I think (and so does she) that it would be good to meet with others. We have a group near us called Aspire which she thinks she might contact. Thanks for the information Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
