Was reading this news article about a 2yr initiative in N Wales for autism today, and thought maybe the following paragraph might give a glimpse of light at the end of a very long tunnel...
Speaking at the event on Friday 20 April, Professor Michael Scott, Vice-Chancellor of Glyndŵr University, said: ?Glyndŵr University is an appropriate venue to host an event of this kind. This is a university which has a history of opening up higher education to everyone. We said 10 years ago we wanted to be a university which is open to all but no one believed us. They said it couldn?t be done but the number of people with disabilities studying here has increased four-fold in that time.
"It?s not just about bringing people into the university, it?s about making them successful. Our students with disabilities leave here able to compete on a level playing field with other graduates and last year we had two students who were awarded first class degrees."
