Our fantastic new photography and the voluteers who worked with us

We really love our new photography and hope everyone else does too.

We wanted to commission images that aligned with the new brand; so, to help us do this in a way that reflected our commitment to the welfare of autistic people, we developed some guiding principles:

• Autistic people are at the heart of everything we do and should feature in all of our photography. 
• Our images should reflect the incredible diversity of the community. 
• We must bring to life autistic people’s individuality and authentic selves. 
• Welfare should always guide our photography.

We asked for volunteers to participate in photography from our Community Advisory Panel and had over 65 applications. We selected six people for our initial images, they each worked with our team to create shoots that reflected their personality and portrayed what autism meant to them.
