Every
year, at BMIT Technologies we celebrate World Autism Awareness Day - this year
we are all teleworking, so we thought we would share our message on social
media.
The
Autism Awareness Puzzle Ribbon is the most recognisable symbol of the autism
community in the world. But why a puzzle?
The puzzle pattern reflects the complexity of the autism spectrum.
The different colours and shapes represent the diversity of the people and families living with the condition.
The brightness of the ribbon signals hope - hope that through increased awareness of autism, and through early intervention and access to appropriate services, people with autism will lead full lives able to interact with the world on the own terms.
If you would like to know more how to interact with people on the spectrum, have a look at these top tips prepared by the National Autistic Society - UK
