Building Positive Behaviour: An Introduction To Supporting Positive Behaviour Change | Webinar | 29/07/2021
Behaviour is how we act and react to everyday environments and situations. We all engage in behaviour that challenges others at times, it’s part of being a person. In some cases though, people develop behaviours that persist, interfering with their day-to-day experiences, affecting their relationships and impacting their quality of life. A positive and pro-active approach considers the reasons for the person’s behaviour so that we can work out how to help make things better for them.

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.

Our Sensory World (Younger Years) | 21/08/2021
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.
