The Draft Autism and ADHD Strategy- Engagement Part 1

Overview

Kingston Council is working together with local organisations and residents to write a new all age Autism and ADHD strategy. A strategy is a document that shows what we want to do and how we are going to do it. We want to find out what is important to Autistic people and/ or people who have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Have Your Say 

Please tell us what you think about the draft priorities for the strategy. These are the most important areas that the work will focus on.

Who should fill out this survey?

• We want to hear from people who are experts by experience of all ages and also professionals. For this survey, an expert by experience is an autistic person and/or someone who has ADHD.  It also includes someone who might give support, like a family member
• This survey is for people who live, work, study or go to activities in the Borough of Kingston or have done so recently.
• It is also for people who have recently led focus groups on the Autism and ADHD strategy to share information from their discussions with us.

How to get in touch with us

If you have any questions, or need any of the information in a different format, please get in touch with us by emailing adultscommissioning@kingston.gov.uk or call the council's contact centre on 020 8547 5000, and ask for a member of the adults commissioning team to call you back. We can also support you in answering the questions on the phone if this is easier for you.

Why your views matter

We need to work with you to develop the strategy. Hearing from people with personal experience is very important so we can make a plan of action that will improve the lives of autistic people and/or people who have ADHD in Kingston. We can’t do this without you. 

Now is the time to have your say as we have a chance to make positive changes with the new strategy. 

Thank you very much for your time and for sharing your expertise.
