We’re inviting people of all ages to send the Council original videos, paintings, drawings, photographs or music. Share personal experiences or insights about autism and how it impacts the lives of autistic people or those around them – parents, carers, medical professionals, teachers, partners, friends, lovers, work colleagues.
Also welcome: poetry, stories, and other creative expressions. Or mixed media – you can record yourself reading a poem or paint round words – as long as it can be emailed.
Entry date
If you or someone you know has made artwork about autism or feel inspired to create something new, submit your work by midnight on 31 March. We look forward to showcasing the Lambeth community’s perspectives on Autism.
All-age Autism Strategy
Lambeth Council and local NHS partners aim to improve services and support for autistic people. We are consulting on proposals to develop a new All-Age Autism Strategy to be launched in 2023.
We are seeking views from people including autistic people, their families, and professionals working in the field on 6 key areas from the National Autism Strategy plus 1 local priority. Closing date is the same as for artwork, March 31. Share your views on the strategy by completing our online survey or at one an online event
