Autism is a lifelong condition that affects the way the brain develops. People are born on the autism spectrum.

The way it affects people changes over time as a person grows and matures.

About 1% of the population is on the autism spectrum.

More males are diagnosed than females.

Every person on the autism spectrum is different and their differences are in two main areas:

• Communicating and interacting with other people
• Repetitive routines in behaviour, interests or activities.
