WORKSHOP
Looking at Sensory Needs
Do the children in your setting present with a diverse range of needs that you are not sure how to support? Sensory processing difficulties may present as part of neurodiverse conditions such as autism or ADHD but can also overlap with a presentation of early trauma. If you work with children it's important to be able to support them well.
Who is this workshop for?
Children's workers in churches, schools or children's activities.
​
Come along to this workshop, led by a sensory integration trained OT, to learn about some of the difficulties that can arise and to discover tools that will help you to adapt your ministry and work to be more inclusive of these children and young people.
