In May and June 2026 we provided two family day workshops for families with an autistic child. These were fully funded by the Tesco Stronger Starts Community Fund. The workshop combined the expertise of Emotional Logic Coaches, Drama therapists and neurodiversity experts. The workshop was also supported by a team of volunteers, many of whom live with neurodiversity.
During the session we had discussion, creative activities including clay, puppets and crafts and a shared ‘make your own’ pizza lunch. The workshop aimed at equipping families with tools and language to have healthy and positive emotional communication in the home!
Parent’s Comments:
We have attended few courses and this one so far was THE BEST, it explained how differently we behaving and reacting, but also how to deal with it. It was the most useful tool we were presented as a parents to neurodivergent children
Loved the books, they are amazing, wish we done this 2 years ago, when I couldn’t see a way forward.
Staff were all friendly and approachable. All well knowledgeable and could see they put alot of effort and thoughts into the course. Lovely to see so many different professionals involved and lovely that alot of them were neurodiverse themselves. I think that helps alot of neurodiverse people who are attending feel more relaxed and understood aswell.
My children enjoyed making the clay safe place. They enjoyed the setting it was in and the fact it allowed them the freedom to go out as and when needed to help them keep regulated.
They enjoyed making the pizza.
One of my children liked the fact some of the staff were also openly neurodivergent too.

We are now actively seeking further funding to be able to continue offering and improving our provision and support. As this attendee said:
“This workshop should be offered to every parent It does help so so much,
It showed is the simplest way how to overcome daily emotional struggles”
