:07:40. > :07:44.And that's what I've done, H've been open about my autism.
:07:45. > :07:47.In my role, I feel very strongly about leaving the
:07:48. > :07:49.door open for the next generation of autistic
:07:50. > :08:01.Earlier, I spoke to Sarah L`mbert, Head of Policy at the National
:08:02. > :08:03.Autistic Society, and began by asking her what sort
:08:04. > :08:08.of help autistic people need in the workplace.
:08:09. > :08:11.So this would be things like support in terms
:08:12. > :08:12.of social interaction and
:08:13. > :08:16.But also, within the workpl`ce, they may need to be
:08:17. > :08:18.adjustments to make sure the environment is autism friendly,
:08:19. > :08:21.because lots of autistic people have problems with bright lights or loud
:08:22. > :08:23.noises, so it can be just about making
:08:24. > :08:24.simple adjustments in the workplace
:08:25. > :08:26.so that people can concentrate and get on with their
:08:27. > :08:32.So presumably that's really about employers and
:08:33. > :08:35.people in the workplace being more aware and be more accepting?
:08:36. > :08:50.So with the campaign we just launched we did also launch a
:08:51. > :08:52.short film, showing some of the difficulties that autistic
:08:53. > :08:54.people can find to the interview process
:08:55. > :08:56.which looks at communication difficulties they might expdrience
:08:57. > :08:59.and also some of the sensorx things I just talked about in terms of
:09:00. > :09:03.lighting and noise and you can see that short film about autisl at

:11:31. > :11:36.records in Wales, the warmest Halloween, 22 Celsius. A glorious
:11:37. > :11:40.shot, fairly indicative of what we had in Wales today, sent in by
:11:41. > :11:43.weather watcher earlier. A different story further north and east. The
:11:44. > :11:49.cloud made it great and in the Northern Isles temperatures didn't
:11:50. > :11:54.climb above nine Celsius. It is as cold air set to descend south
:11:55. > :11:55.through the course of the night tonight and brings a marked contrast
