CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
Researth aThJ iwghts tell us- irrespedive of background, level of need or iTrJividual orcurnstances - that al aub'stic people fa
the same IKelong dlscrlmlnation and inlustlces. They are repeatedly excluded and let down by those people and systems that
are tr> supM trern.
Public data gathertng Is and wh2re the￿ is dats, il spells ort a consL*nt rnlstreatmert of auUstK peotle whth 15 largety
hbjden from wblic wew.
For too lory 6 culture of inactlon has been iolerated wY(h the volce of aubstic people routlnely tgnored. l am constantly skttxked
ty the storie5 we are tdd - of peDple whose needs are unseen or mlsunder5twd wlth SIMp￿ requests for help unheeded by our
S&￿￿. somet)n￿S wth the trBglc of consequLYKe5.
The struggle for change 15 a f￿ht for 50ual ju5￿ce as well è5 pK4ress. It calls for a dlffetent sort of auusm charity, one l arn
pleased to say the Aullsm Centre of EX￿l￿n￿ tsys rnade strong progrtss In becoming.
This year we trK)k the dec151on to revtew our brand io refleLt TTh)re urgency our de￿￿ to be an evkIenCe-ba￿ artlvSsL The

We are acceleratlng our wot* wilh pdiry makers, researthers and partners to commi551on re5earth, canyalgns and collaboratyons
for more effcdve supwrt across hea￿h and wdlbeiTrJ, empbyment, Crir￿nal Justte, educatlon and advc￿cY.
Auustic reople must have a direct hand In all we do. We have made a cornrnhtment io be most collotrtlrnt￿e autism charity In

Our approach io commlsslonlw wsearch Is al￿ driven by a commltment to at ￿ale. The research we have commlssH)ned
thls year wlth the UnIver￿ty of Carnbridge and other collaborators Is deslgned lo marshal authoritative and perSuaS￿e evlden
