#AUTISMAWARENESS

For so long, autism awareness has been symbolised by a puzzle piece but times are changing and so too must we.

The puzzle piece gives the symbolism that autistic people are a problem to be solved or that they are overly complex.

There’s also the fact that puzzles are typically something played by children, and it tends to promote a stereotype that autism is a children’s diagnosis.

Much of the Autisic community have been moving away from the puzzle piece so with the start of a new year, BVLC are doing the same.

The rainbow-coloured infinity symbol is a popular symbol among autistic people and autism rights advocate, symbolising a broad and varied spectrum of experiences.

Please show your support for Autism Awareness by purchasing one of our NEW, limited run, autism awareness patches.
