Autism & Sensory Differences

Autistic individuals experience sensory information in very unique ways, including over-sensitivity, under-sensitivity or poor modulation. Whilst sensory differences can often be enjoyable for autistic individuals, they can also have a profound effect on a person's life, causing significant distress in coping with daily life.

This workshop will cover:

• Our senses and how they work
• Insight into the sensory differences experienced by autistic individuals
• The differences between Hyer and Hypo sensitive
• Sensory differences VS behaviour
• Useful sensory strategies
• Opportunity to make some sensory resources

Trainers: Jo Major and Katherine Eaton
