Anti-Bullying Key Points

An Exclusive project supporting Give Us the Break campaign

As part of Plus Value Awareness initiative in supporting "Give Us a Break" campaign, a family of specially designed digital templates have been made for Social Media posts during Anti-Bullying Week.

Each template contains different anti-bullying messages towards people living with the Autistic Spectrum.

This is broken down into the following areas: "Not a game", "It's not cool", "Stop & Think", "An autistic person are humans too", "Think about the harm & side-effects" and "Be Smart"

Please note despite the content on the page focused related to the lives affecting indivduals with the Autitsic Sprectrum many of the issues can also applies to those living with other neurological diffuclities. (including ADHD, Dyslexia and Dyspraxia)

Also the content on this page related to bullying can affect individuals with autism at any age and beyond the age of 25.
