#Sikh & #Muslim #mothers are trying to break the #shame & #stigma surrounding #autism in their community.

They have described feeling #SociallyExcluded & say husbands & partners also need to take up caring duties.

Habiba, whose son is #autistic, said: "It's really #isolating & stressful as there is often #gaslighting & #UnsolicitedAdvice which can lead to feeling very lonely."

3 #SouthAsian charities also say #ignorance & #myths need to be tackled.
