Highlights how distressing detention can be, the need for better understanding of #Autism in the criminal justice system, and the vital role of the appropriate adult.

The goal of #WorldMentalHealthDay is to raise awareness.
I'd like to raise awareness of this:
39% of adults in #police #custody have a #mentaldisorder.
(McKinnon & Grubin, 2013).
For me, this raises profound questions about how we deal with #mentalillness & who we police.
Never give up hope when things go wrong!
Life is #HARD brings out🗣️
Happiness😊
Ambition👊
Respect ✊
Determination🤨
#AutismAcceptance stay safe on #WorldMentalHealthDay

Excellent & informative presentation 🗣by @Clo_Holloway on autism & police custody identifying autistic people’s sensory needs launching #NAPP Nottinghamshire Autism Police Partnership with @nottspolice & @UoN_Institute 🚨#ActuallyAutistic👮♂️
Top tips from @Clo_Holloway adapting the police custody environment for autistic & LD detainees. Working as one team with autistic people @Soph_Phillips32 academics @DrNellMunro, Dani Roper, police officers & custody officers @nottspolice reducing anxiety & stress #NAPP launch🗣
A well deserved interview @Clo_Holloway being interviewed @bbcemt on the importance of autism & police custody. Understanding each autistic person’s sensory needs & adapting to them to reduce anxiety & stress levels using easy to read flowcharts/diagrams what happens now & next.
Equal access throughout the UK for all autistic detainees in police custody are treated equally & fairly. Understanding & supporting their sensory needs & concerns. Mandatory #AutismAcceptance training will reduce unnecessary arrest & convictions.
