Yasmin Nasli
Yasmin is a Policy and Parliamentary officer at the National Autistic Society, and leads on our work around social care and physical health. She works closely with the rest of the team to ensure that policies reflect the needs of autistic people and their families. During the pandemic, this has included ensuring that decisions about coronavirus laws, such as lockdowns and face coverings, work for the approx. 700,000 autistic people in the UK.
Andy Cutting
For the past eight years, Andy Cutting has been supporting schools to help them overcome the barriers to inclusion and to avoid exclusion. He has provided training for schools, seminars and workshops, as well as producing online resources and information.
Andy's role also includes running the National Autistic Society’s School Exclusion Helpline, which supports parents and carers of autistic children and young people, who have been excluded from school or college, or are at risk of exclusion.
