Coventry Complex Communication Team will be delivering a series of 6 free

workshop sessions aimed at parents and carers of children and young people on

the Autism spectrum and with complex communication needs.

Each session will be delivered virtually through Microsoft Teams and presented by a specialist practitioner in the field of Autism and complex communication needs. There will be a series of sessions focusing on a range of topics, which include:

Week 1- Thursday 12th June 2025: Understanding your child and their Autism

Week 2 – Thursday 19th June 2025: Supporting your child with self-care and independence

Week 3 – Thursday 26th June 2025: Supporting your child and their sensory processing differences

Week 4 – Thursday 3rd July 2025: Supporting your child and their behaviours

Week 5 – Thursday 10th July 2025: Supporting your child with their learning

Week 6 – Thursday 17th July 2025: Supporting your child with transitions

The aim of each session will be to:

To raise an awareness of how Autism/Complex Communication Needs can affect your child

To develop a shared understanding of some of the challenges that our children face, and the strengths they can bring

To increase your confidence in understanding and supporting your child

To build up a bank of ideas and strategies that can be used to support your child

All sessions are 4.30pm-5.45pm. Whilst we appreciate you may not be able to attend every session due to work/family commitments; the expectation is that you must attend week 1 as this provides the foundation for the remaining sessions, and that you are able to commit to at least three of the following sessions. There are weekly advice clinics that accompany each session, where you have an allocated slot to ask specific questions relating to your child.
