This resource looks at how you can present information to support autistic people
to use your services or facilities.
Many autistic people will experience anxiety, the triggers for this will vary, but it
will often impact their quality of life. Advance information can be very important
for autistic visitors who may be able to cope better if they can prepare before
their visit. By providing as much information as possible about your venue, you
will manage expectations, reduce anxiety and help with planning. Details of a
venue layout are important for people with a range of accessibility requirements
but certain environmental elements can be challenging or confusing for an
autistic visitor.
Even if you don’t operate a venue, providing information about what people can
expect when they use your facility or services (for example, on your website) can
help to reduce anxiety
