Middletown Centre for Autism

Statement from Centre Chief Executive Mr Gary Cooper OBE
 
I fully appreciate that in these challenging times parents and professionals will be looking for support in relation to the children and young people that they live and work with.

At Middletown Centre for Autism I have been pleased by the approach the Centre staff have undertaken in relation to the development of a range of online resources and supports fully available wherever you may be.

This newsletter highlights a major new move for the Centre with the introduction of webinars. These specialist sessions should be of great assistance in supporting autistic children and young people and their families during the current crisis.

I have been hugely appreciative of those who have undertaken to support the Centre in the development of these new services.

I have no doubt that you will find them of great value.

Further details of how to access these sessions follows:

In the meantime I wish everyone well, stay safe and your collective support is hugely appreciated.

Middletown Centre Webinar Series March - April 2020
 
In order to provide support during the suspension of our face to face delivery Middletown is offering a series of twice weekly live webinars (with a week's break for Easter). These sessions will feature members of our own multi-disciplinary team and international speakers on a series of themes.

Please click on the link beside each name to read more about the session and register to attend a live session. Please note the live sessions will hold a maximum of 100 attendees but they will be posted on social media and on the Centre’s website so no-one will miss out on these valuable learning opportunities .
