About the event
Join us for an empowering training session, where we’ll explore the vital role of executive functioning, the brain’s management system and how it impacts daily life. You’ll gain insight into what happens when executive functioning is impaired and discover supportive strategies, tailored for neurodiverse children and young people.
In this workshop you will learn:
What executive functioning is and why it matters.
Common challenges faced by neurodiverse youth.
How to nurture self-motivation.
Tools for promoting independence in budgeting, financial management, and daily living skills.
These sessions are open to all parent carers in Somerset who have a child with additional needs and/or a disability.
