Free Online Monthly Drop-ins for parents & carers
We would like to let you know about a free online support opportunity for parents and carers that is run through the Autism Family Support Service.
The next drop-in takes place in December. Normally, we run the 'You Are Not Alone' drop-in on the 1st Tuesday of the month but in December we are doing something special.
Instead of 1 drop-in session we are going to run 5 drop-in sessions from Monday 1st December - Friday 5th December from 7pm - 8.30pm.
As well as having the opportunity to ask general questions, every drop-in has a theme. Here's the list:
Monday: Autism journey rant - share anything that you are frustrated about and more..
Tuesday: Education - School - EOTAS - Home education and more..
Wednesday - Understanding autism and PDA and more..
Thursday - Emotional regulation -
Friday - Social development - so much more is possible
Who runs the sessions?
I'm Erik Wagter, co-founder of Autism Family Support Service, currently also working as a Social Worker/Manager for Early Help.
Alongside being a social worker, trainer and Solution Focused family coach, he also bring over two decades of personal lived family experience of autism. From time to time he will be joined by his wife Sally Wagter, who is a teacher, author and trainer.
These sessions are a chance for parents to talk openly, learn, and connect. They don't have to do this on their own.
Kind regards,
Erik & Sally Wagter
