The Autism Show
Visit ExCel London from the 24th to 25th June 2011 for The Autism Show: The first national event dedicated to autism for parents, carers, professionals and individuals on the spectrum. The Autism Show has been launched for the estimated two million people in the UK who live and work with autism on a daily basis but all too often don’t know where to turn for answers. As we enter an era of austerity in public services, this need has never been greater.
Highlights include
1-2-1 Clinics hosted by specialist professionals including Speech and Language Therapists, Educational Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, Behaviour Analysts and Legal Advisors.
Over 50 suppliers of products and services including learning tools, visual aids, sensory equipment, specialist furniture, residential care and education, specialist schools, and holiday providers.
An in depth CPD certified conference programme including sessions on Transitions in Education, The Transition to Adolescence, Skills and Strategies when Dealing with Challenging Behaviour, Demystifying ABA, Navigating the Statementing Process, Working with Autism and Autism in Higher Education.
Practical based seminars offering a range of ideas and strategies which can be immediately implemented at home or in the workplace.
Insightful presentations from individuals on the autism spectrum.
The Autism Show has also been specifically designed around the needs of visitors on the autism spectrum with fast track entry, extra wide aisles, high ceilings, dimmed lighting, clear signage, a sensory room and quiet room created by Mike Ayres Design.
