We recently spoke with classical singer Jonathan Antoine about his diagnosis journey and the impact it has had on his life.

Jonathan shares what led to his assessment through our charity’s Diagnostic Assessment Service, how this made him feel and how he was able to process it.

Stories like Jonathan’s highlight the importance of access to diagnostic services, increased awareness, and creating space for lived experience to be shared and understood. 💜
