About play types and their importance

How it feels to have Autistic Spectrum Disorder

Outcomes of the course:

A practical understanding of the importance of play and the way our play values may challenge people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder
An understanding of the ways in which sensory responses and perceptual difficulties may affect the person's ability to access play
