My story: Through my own lived experience of severe mental illness and autism, I began to become an ambassador and speaker in this area. Gaining recognition through multiple awards, including recognition in Parliament, I am building my charity to be the person for others that my past self-needed.
Company Mission: Our mission is to support autistic young people aged 12-25 who are dealing with mental health challenges. Emotion Dysregulation in Autism (EDA) is a lived experience-led mental health charity that offers social action, campaigning opportunities and peer support with emotion regulation skills.
