EXPERIENCES OF AUTISTIC PEOPLE ACCESSING SERVICES
The ARC is exploring autistic people and their family carers’ access and experiences of a range of services across Europe and beyond. The project is called ACCESS-EU.
To make the research as meaningful as we can, we need as many participants as possible.
We would also appreciate it if you could share this advert with your mailing list(s)/local networks or on social media channels such as Facebook pages or Twitter feeds.
We are hoping to hear from those:
– who are autistic and over 16 years old or a parent/family carer of an autistic person of any age who is unable to complete the survey themselves
AND
– who has (or their autistic family member has) accessed (successfully and unsuccessfully) a service
The survey is open to individuals (or carers with a family member) with a formal diagnosis of autism, those who are self diagnosed and/or waiting for an autism diagnostic service.
The survey takes 10-20 minutes to complete.
You can read more about the study and take part via https://cambridge.eu.qualtrics

HEALTHCARE EXPERIENCES STUDY
The Autism Research Centre is looking for both autistic and non-autistic individuals, aged 16 years or older to complete an anonymous survey about healthcare experiences. With your help, we are hoping to better understand how the healthcare experiences autistic individuals may differ from others. Currently, there is very limited research on the physical health profile of adults with autism. We hope that this study will allow us to better establish a comparison of experiences regarding healthcare experiences.
To participate in this study, please complete this anonymous questionnaire: https://bit.ly/2uDj0Ks . It should take approximately 15-25 minutes of your time to complete.
For further information on the study, please consult the Participant Information Sheet at http://docs.autismresearchcent
Exploring the benefits and impact of participation in improv comedy and lived experiences on anxiety
This study aims to explore anxiety and lived experiences between autistic and non-autistic people with improv comedy training and/or involvement. Participants will be asked about:
This does mean improv theatre and comedy, and not theatre that may use some improvisation. I hope this will help as a distinction in who I am seeking. I have attached a full information sheet and consent form as a pdf.
