Increase funding to reduce the waiting times for Autism Diagnoses

Closed 194 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like the Government to increase funding to reduce the waiting times for autism diagnoses.
Children are waiting years for a diagnosis of autism. We believe they are being failed by the system. An increase in funding could help build more clinics to help with waiting times and speed up the process of providing diagnoses.
