Aucademy's ethos & guiding principles: At Aucademy our fundamental aim is to educate Autistic people & non-autistic people about Autistic experience, taught by an entirely Autistic team of educators & collaborators.
Outlined below, full details on website aucademy.co.uk/our-ethos/
1/ We particularly hope to hear from people not often represented, such as:
* Black & Brown Autistic people &/or people with a learning disability;
* LGBTQIA Autistic people &/or people with a learning disability.
2/ Advertising for Kent & Medway Autistic people &/or people with a learning disability to learn to be trainers with us. Please see the details in the original post.
