Following on from last year’s #XmasAutisticLifeHacks series, we have decided to bring it back this year. #XmasAutisticLifeHacks is basically where we have tips from autistic people on how to make Christmas less of a stress and more manageable. We shared those tips on our website and social media accounts, as well as with the wider autistic community.

Previous seasonal life hacks included preparing for Secret Santa, avoiding sensory overload and how to leave parties when socially exhausted. This year, we hope to cover everything from Christmas dinner to giving presents.
