Community Workshops
We have been lucky enough to receive National Lottery funding to provide workshops for parents and carers to help them through some common challenges SEND families face.
We’re delighted to be welcoming Lyndsay Hart from Hartsense Children’s Occupational Therapy for our next interactive workshop, Your Child’s Sensory World.
This hands-on session is designed for parents, carers and children to explore sensory processing together in a practical and supportive way. Children will have the chance to try a range of sensory equipment, while parents learn more about why their child may respond to the world in different ways and what strategies can help them feel more regulated.
The workshop will take place at Wildflower Meadows, Burghfield Common, on Saturday 22nd August, 10am–12pm— we’d love for you to join us.
We’re really pleased to be welcoming Abbie Petrie from Abbie’s Achievers Tutoring for an insightful and practical online workshop on Understanding PDA — Pathological Demand Avoidance.
This session is designed for parents and carers who would like to better understand PDA and how it can shape a child’s experiences, anxiety, behaviour, communication, and responses to everyday demands.
Abbie will explore what PDA is, how it may present day to day, and share practical, compassionate strategies to help families reduce conflict, build connection, support regulation, and respond with greater confidence.
This supportive and accessible online session will take place on 17th September, 6–8pm via Zoom, with opportunities to reflect and ask questions.
