The Autism Directory was launched in November 2010 at Ashrove, a specialist school for autism in Penarth South Wales by Assembly Member Janet Ryder.[1] In September 2011 The Autism Directory achieved its Charity Status and is registered with the Charities Commission.
The main activity is the directory which categorises the resources and information about autism into a number of categories (examples below). The directory is UK wide and is user generated so it relies on the community and businesses in local areas to help build the directory.[2]
The "Autism friendly" mark is awarded to those companies that have received Autism Awareness training from various approved organisations including The Autism Directory itself. It shows that this particular company has a basic awareness of autism and acts as a good indicator to any potential customers.
