We enjoyed showcasing toothPASTE at the first N8+ Child Oral Health Meeting- around how midstream approaches like toothPASTE can help support families with autistic children feel confident & empowered in looking after their teeth- and tackle the autism assessment & support crisis
We were pleased to host the first N8+ Child Oral Health Meeting last week in Leeds. The event focused on the latest research and policy updates to improve children's oral health across the North of England.

Navigating public spaces that are not build with your needs in mind can cause huge sensory demands and overwhelm. These inaccessible spaces lock neurodivergent people out of everyday life. Read our plan to change spaces: https://t.co/AbPdZOsNRO

So pleased to see @toothPASTEstudy included in this plan around inclusive places and adapting healthcare spaces 👏🏽 well done on a fantastic report
9 in 10 autistic people have sensory differences, but the public spaces we use every day are not built with neurodivergent people's needs in mind. Released today, the Autistica #InclusiveSpaces Plan sets out how we'll make public spaces more inclusive.

I strongly urge anyone interested in bettering the lives of children and young people to read the APPG report published by @ChildoftheNort1. Myself and @DrPeterDay were fortunate to help contribute to this report and further the case for children's oral health.
Today, we have published a new report which shows that northern schools are losing out on hundreds of pounds of funding per pupil compared to those in London 1/6 https://t.co/vsRY6SJQSW

Had the pleasure of speaking with the @getmebetter team for autism & oral health project @toothPASTEstudy. They shared lots solutions and good practice around reasonable adjustments to make the hospital visit easier for autistic children and families including #healthpassports
Thanks to @ConnectintNorth for sharing information about #HealthPassports. We ask patients to send their passport to us, for their electronic record. This means that @LeedsHospitals staff can read the information when they need to. Full article here: https://t.co/HTmK5EHgS3
