Each online course will have a max of 15 attendees and will be in a Workshop format.
The course will run 10am-11am. Bookings close a week before the event to allow planning.
We apologise – but these courses are not suitable for children and there is no childcare available.
Here’s what parents have to say after attending our online workshops:
“Very comfortable and informal. Learnt a lot”
“The information imparted was needed especially at this time, but the suggestions really have helped me immediately to change some of my ‘default’ behaviours and to see better how my child with lesser outburst ASD symptoms must have needs met better”
“Very grateful for such an informative talk. I hope there are follow up talks as would like to hear more.”
“This is an informative session that also makes you aware of your place in a wider community of other parents in the same situation.”
“Yes very useful. Good in giving you ideas. Interesting to hear from The CEO … a ‘sibling’ herself”
“Worth every minute!”
“Well worth attending so that you can support your other children.”
