Autism Awareness
Howlands Centre, Dewsbury, School Street, Dewsbury, WF13 1LD
My health and me
This one-off workshop looks at the life and experiences of someone living with a diagnosis on the autistic spectrum and the fascinating insight of others looking outside in. Throughout the session we will explore the characteristics of Autism and the various ways that it may affect an individual. We will discuss some of the myths surrounding this diagnosis and what to do if you suspect Autism in yourself of someone else. There will be the opportunity to ask the Facilitators questions and they will provide an overview of the strategies that may help those with Autism or those supporting them. You will also receive information on local and national support networks to access further help.
