Understanding Autism

Join us for an informative and supportive session designed to help parents/carers better understand autism through a neurodiversity-affirming lens. This training will provide clear, accurate information about what autism is - and what it isn’t - while gently challenging common myths and misconceptions.We’ll explore:

• What autism really means in terms of communication, sensory processing, and social interaction
• Why behaviours often reflect communication needs, not defiance or disinterest
• Practical, everyday strategies to support your child’s communication at home
• How to create a responsive environment that honours your child’s unique strengths and preferences

Whether your child has a recent diagnosis or you’re looking to deepen your understanding, this session offers tools, insights, and reassurance to help you feel more confident in supporting their communication journey.

Please note that this even is being delivered by our qualified Speech and Language Therapist, Benjamin Green.
