At The Giving Tree Foundation we are passionate about helping families access evidence-based early intervention therapy, in the form of Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA). Presently, the NHS does not provide any evidence-based therapy for young children with ASD. Some families are struggling to even receive a timely diagnosis. With this in mind, The Giving Tree Foundation hosted a luncheon where we invited members of Parliament who had previously expressed interest in special needs, autism, and education. Here, we met Barry Sheerman MP, an amazingly driven individual who is equally passionate about autism and raising awareness. As a result, together we founded the Westminster Commission on Autism.
