The CIC (Community
Interest Company) based in Boldmere, at 39 Gate Lane B73 5TR, provides a range
of services including a weekly social club for children with additional needs
at their stimulating hub, an accessible caravan in Wales for families and
individuals and Autism Awareness training.
The third of these,
the Autism Awareness talks, have proved extremely popular with a range of
audiences, including schools, volunteers and even the staff of Cadbury World!
Between January and
March, with Sutton Coldfield Neighbourhood Networking Scheme (NNS) funding, Square
Peg will be providing six of these talks online. Company director Sharon
Needham will lead the sessions, where topics such as the Spectrum, the Triad of
Impairment and Invisible Disability will be discussed with a range of
organisations within the Network.
For more information
on these workshops, keep an eye on the Sutton Coldfield NNS Blog in the coming
weeks:
