A peer-led workshop for parents and carers
This three-hour, peer-led workshop is for parents and carers who are newly navigating autism and/or ADHD. Whether your child has a diagnosis or you’re still exploring what support might help.
The session focuses on real-life, practical support and what day-to-day life can look like after diagnosis or identification.

Together, we’ll explore:
Executive functioning – why some everyday tasks feel harder and how to support them
Sensory processing – understanding sensory needs and what can help
Anxiety, stress and emotional overload in neurodivergent children
Ways to become more neurodivergent-informed in our parenting and caring roles
This three-hour introductory workshop is for parents and carers who are beginning to explore neurodivergence and want to better understand their child.
The session supports families who may be wondering whether their child could be autistic and/or have ADHD, and who are at the early stages of learning what this might mean. It offers a gentle, accessible introduction to neurodiversity, with time to learn, reflect and ask questions alongside other parents and carers at a similar point in their journey.
