Testimonies
“I have been the only person consistently there for my son. It is just exhausting to feel alone. Thank you for being there – makes all the difference.”
“Thanks so much, it’s wonderful to know you are there and I can ask you stuff after all this time – thanks for listening.”
“I cannot tell you what a relief this has been to me after feeling alone for so long. Just thinking there is someone there, they can help, they know what the’re doing, they understand; it’s just incredible.”
“Triple A gives autistic folk the chance to mould their own destiny.”
“Very informative. Changed my views on what autism means and this session has given me a really good insight into what an individual with autism feels and goes through and should I come across someone with autism, how I can communicate with them.”
“I thought the training was very productive and insightful about all else. Being someone who has worked with autistic children before, but never had a real understanding of it, it has made me think back to all the things I would have done differently to offer better engagement and all the different strategies I could put in place in the future.”
“I have a child with ASC and ADHD and we learnt much more today – lighting, sound, how to talk and approach people how much ASC people feel and why they stim.”
“Really enjoyed the training. Extremely knowledgeable trainers – approachable and easy to ask questions – especially the co-facilitator who said he would not get offended by any questions and made us feel at ease. Made sure we could relate to it at our jobs, which was very useful. Love the saying, “Nothing about us without us”. Will be using the and spreading the word.”
