Our popular Autism and Us programme returns this month, with a combination of free four-week courses and one-off workshops.
It offers support for families of children and young people who are either on the neurodiversity assessment waiting list or who have received a diagnosis of autism.
Parents and carers have opportunity to develop your understanding of autism and look at practical solutions to managing and supporting your child’s presenting needs, whilst also connecting with other parents or carers.
The free four week ‘live online’ programme is run twice a term, with weekly two hour sessions on Microsoft Teams, each focussing on a different topic starting with an overview of autism, then communications needs, understanding and supporting behaviour and sensory needs.
There’s also popular themed or topic based workshops, which lead on from the course, covering things like managing stress and anxiety, vulnerability and online safety and demand avoidance.
Full details, including course dates and how to secure your place, are available on our website.
