Food is an essential part of living and socialising; it forms the building blocks of the human body and it helps us to form meaningful connections through the enjoyment of a shared meal. For children with Autism having diet variety for adequate nutrition can be a real challenge for many reasons, and taking part in mealtime experiences with others may affected.  Come and join our *TASTEE team to learn about both the “why” behind mealtime challenges for children with Autism and what you can start to do about them. 

Integrating the information we receive from our senses helps us to understand the world around us. Sensory processing is what makes it possible for your child to use the sensory input they receive from their body and surroundings in a functional way. When a child has difficulties processing sensory information, it means that they organise and respond to the information that comes through their senses in different and sometimes unusual ways. Join us for an interactive session that will open your eyes to the sensory world we live in and help you to gain insight into how your child may be seeing, hearing, smelling and feeling things differently.
