Registration for Autscape 2015 is now open!

This is the eleventh annual Autscape event -- a combined conference and
retreat for *and* by autistic people and their supporters.

Autscape is a conference with a difference. It is an autistic
conference, rather than an event about autism. The environment and
content are centred around autistic people's needs, interests and
sensitivities. This year's theme is "Exploring Autistic Space". However,
the programme is varied and some sessions will not even be about autism
at all! All welcome, whether you self-identify as autistic, have an
autism or Asperger's diagnosis, or even are non-autistic.

Location: Giggleswick School, Settle, North Yorkshire, BD24 0DE, UK.
Dates: Friday 21 August - Monday 24 August 2015.
Registration will close in mid July.

The sooner we know about this year's participants and their needs the
better we and the venue can cater for everyone, so please register as
soon as possible.

registrar, whose e-mail address you can find at the registration page:

WHAT IS AUTSCAPE?

Autscape is a conference with a difference. Rather than talking to a
primarily non-autistic audience about autism, this conference is
specifically by and for autistic people. Some of it isn't even about
autism at all! Non-autistic people are also welcome, but the environment
and content of the event are centred around autistic people¹s needs,
interests and sensitivities.

Autscape lasts three days in which there are workshops, leisure
activities, social opportunities, and more, all specifically oriented to
the needs and preferences of autistic people.
