For All prisons in the Uk to become 'Autism friendly'

Closed 483 signatures

What the petition asks

There is very little training in prisons for officers/ staff to recognise and support Autistic adults entering the prison and serving their sentence. Only one prison in the UK called Feltham, has been Autism accredited and has made such a huge impact on supporting Autistic prisoners .
