"We had a fantastic experience exhibiting!"
National Autism Team
"I've not stopped waxing poetic about your event last year and how great it was run, attended and felt like an honest to god event. On more than one occasion, both Dan and I have been made to feel our attendance was a quota.
Alex Watts - Aspie World
They roll us out with the 'look - we're inclusive!' banner. It's tedious. CAS 22 had such a family and community vibe - one I have not felt since!"
“Excellent. Brilliant to have so many useful applicable organisations in one place. Everyone very approachable and friendly. Vast amount of options/advice available.”
