What do you do?
I am an administration apprentice at Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust. I have Asperger syndrome which is a form of autism that affects my social and communication skills with others.
I was unemployed for two years and had little success finding work. When I found out about my apprenticeship, I felt a mixed bag of emotions – excitement, thrill and amazement.
The trust has been accepting of me and I believe they are keen to learn more about Asperger syndrome so that the staff can understand future employees who are diagnosed with it and able to help them.
