Résumé :	Joan Blackhurst has 20 years’ experience of autism and is employed by a local autism charity where she supervises a helpline, as well as advising people on ail aspects of autism. Joan is also a trustee and volunteer for another local autism charity. She has experience working with a wide age range of peopie on the autistic spectrum. This paper reports on a study of 43 police personnel and the experiences of 11 individuals with Asperger syndrome (AS). It highlights the misunderstandings that can occur and the need for training. It is encouraging that the police who were interviewed were keen to have more information on AS and how to deal with these adults when they were in trouble. The suggestion is made that local support groups and autistic societies are well placed to skill up this workforce.
