| I heard that Specialisterne, a Danish IT company, were planning to open a factory in central Scotland to employ mainly autistic people, but I've not heard anything of it yet. |

Hi,
I put this job vacancy (aimed primarily at people on the spectrum) on my magazine's website a few days ago, and wondered if there was anyone interested in applying for it.

I might go, but transport is an issue, as I don't have a car, and it takes a long time for me to get from Leeds to somehwere just outside Bath.
I'll look into it over the next week or so |

I've been to their past two meetings, but tbh, I'd rather be involved in a proper self-advocacy group like ASAN, and one that's non-hierarchical. Hopefully something will pop up from the magazine I've started

I've thought of setting up a Yorkshire equivalent of LARM, as we really need one up here, but don't know enough people to set one up just yet.
