Post Diagnostic Course (Virtual)

This 6-week course is run by two facilitators who are Autistic and trained as Autism Peer Support Workers. Their role is to facilitate group sessions throughout the course on a number of topics, including:

Understanding the Diagnosis
A session focusing on what Autism is and what it is not. We will look at the diagnostic criteria and break it down into understandable language and relatable examples.

Health & Self-Care
Autism has many co-occurring conditions that many people are not aware of. This session covers those, along with basic health and self-care advice.

Relationships
A session around romantic and platonic relationships, and how to navigate them.

Socialising
A session around making friends and how to keep friendships.

Rights & Responsibilities
A session around what your rights are, as well as other supportive schemes and benefits that may be available post-diagnosis.

Wrap-up & Reflection
An ending session to review everything that has been discussed, look at next steps, and wrap up the course.

To join the course, please purchase a ticket. Your ticket gives you access to all six video call sessions.

This course is designed as a full six-session programme, so sessions are not available to book individually.
