You and Yours Health

On 13 September 2007 the BBC Radio 4 programme, ‘You and Yours’ broadcast a feature about people with autistic spectrum disorders and the criminal justice system.

The broadcast included information about the screening tool we are developing with Edinburgh University and the Scottish Prison service. We hope this simple test can be used to identify individuals with autism and help improve services.
