True blue for autism day

THE City Chambers was bathed in blue light to support World Autism Awareness Day.

The illumination was organised by Lothian Autistic Society and Autism Initiatives Scotland to raise awareness of the condition.

It was backed by families affected by autism.

Charlotte Taylor, from Autism Initiatives, said: “It is so important that people with autism, their families and carers know there are charities and organisations in Edinburgh to support them.”
