FASD affects more people than autism yet is a condition that is often misdiagnosed or missed completely. While more than 400 conditions can co-occur, FASD is primarily a neurodevelopmental condition with lifelong cognitive, emotional and behavioural challenges.
The Family Voice Surrey FASD group meets on a regular basis via Zoom and provides an opportunity to share experiences and exchange advice. We also have a WhatsApp Group for day-to-day chat.
The host for the event is Sara Draycott (Waverley FVS Co -ordinator) and she is joined by Debbie Bell, a carer of children diagnosed with FASD.
