Sensory Processing Workshop

A single workshop for parent/carers of children and young people who may have difficulties with Sensory Processing, whether they have received a diagnosis or not. This is a common factor for children and young people with Autism or ADHD.

These workshops are open to all parents/carers who live in Berkshire.

Topics covered include:

  • What is Sensory Processing?
  • Unpicking the science behind Sensory Processing
  • Sensory overload, sensory seeking behaviour – what does this mean?
  • Strategies to support child/young person better and manage levels of sensory arousal

 

This service was commissioned by the CCGs, part of the NHS in the west and east of Berkshire.

 

Please note: These workshops are only suitable for Parents/Carers. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide childcare, or accommodate children.

  • COST Free for Berkshire parent/carers. A number of paid for places are available at £15 per person for non-Berkshire parents/carers and £25 for practitioners. A refundable £5 booking deposit is required for all attendees (plus non-refundable Eventbrite booking fee).
  • DURATION 2 hour workshops
  • DELIVERED BY A specialist Occupational Therapist
  • FREQUENCY This course is typically delivered once a term, in different areas of Berkshire
I found the sensory workshop last night a lot to take in, but really informative. When I got home last night, my son was still awake because of the heat, I rolled a rolling pin over his back and it relaxed him so much that he just said 'Night, Night' and was asleep!
