We hold regular monthly family meet ups in the Sensory Garden in the warmer months.
We offer Parent Training throughout the year on topics such as preparing for primary school, secondary school and life post 18. These are all advertised on our facebook group.
We host Sibling Support workshops (sibshops) for siblings of autistic children/adolescents aged between 7 and 14.
We also host a post 18 Expo every November for those preparing to leave post primary or for those who have already left. We have a diverse selection of service providers in attendance e.g. day services for adults with autism and/or intellectual disability, National Learning Network, Trinity College Dublin, LMETB and many others.
