“My sister has a severe learning disability, and doesn’t have a diagnosis of autism. I think I’d still benefit from attending this session. Can I come along?”
Yes. We’re very grateful to have received funding from the National Lottery Community Fund (Awards for All) to help towards the cost of providing spaces for siblings whose brother or sister has a diagnosis that isn’t autism.
Yes. These sessions are for siblings who may have been a carer in the past, are currently carers or may be a carer in the future.
We don’t take recordings of our sessions, so that siblings feel safe and relaxed to have their cameras on and participate throughout. After the session, we will upload a one-page guide with a summary of the best hints and tips that were shared – come back to this webpage to download it. Also, make sure you’re signed up to our mailing list to hear about future sessions too!
