Years of collaboration, reflection and lived experience
We wanted to offer something more humane and more accurate.
As Autistic, ADHD and multiply neurodivergent adults, and as parents, carers and professionals, we know how often Autistic people are left with compliance-driven guidance and deficit-focused narratives after diagnosis or self-identification.

Visit NeuroHub CommunityThe framework
Built on the Six-Point Framework
Grounded in NeuroHub Community Ltd’s framework for supporting Autistic people, developed through years of community work, research, education and lived experience.
How Autistic experience is understood and framed
The sensory and emotional landscape of the bodymind
Identity, masking, and the cost of survival
Environment, predictability, and relational safety
Power, systems, and institutional harm
Connection, meaning, and Autistic ways of becoming
Why this exists
“Across years of community work, consultancy, research, and lived experience, one pattern kept repeating: Autistic people weren’t failing because they lacked skills. They were suffering because the stories about them erased context, power, and humanity.”
Re-Storying Autism exists to offer a different starting point, honouring complexity, contradiction and growth without demanding assimilation.
“Autistic people flourish when there is safety, agency, sensory consideration and belonging.”
