Neurodevelopmental Services Workshop

Neurodevelopmental Services Workshop

Are you are you a parent/carer of a child or young person with autism or other neurodevelopment needs such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD)?

If so you may be interested in a workshop taking place later this month designed to focus on improving neurodevelopmental services in the Sheffield area. It takes place on Tuesday 23rd March from 10.30am-12.30pm.

The workshop has been organised by local NHS organisations, Sheffield City Council and the Sheffield Parent Carer Forum, who are together setting up what will be known as the Sheffield Neurodevelopment Programme.

If you take part you will hear about how the programme started, the changes that have taken place so far, and have the opportunity to contribute to what they are looking at now, and what they need to do next.

In particular they are looking for input into:

  • How to support front-line staff to identify and support vulnerabilities and other early signs of neurodevelopment needs.
  • What support should be available for parents, families and young people to help them manage neurodevelopment needs.
  • Exploring which services could be delivered closer to home, for example in schools.
  • What improvements should take place in the way assessments are done.

If you are interested in taking part you can register using Eventbrite.

An invite and further information will be sent out to participants nearer the date. The event will take place on video conferencing site Zoom. Places are limited, so you are advised to register as soon as possible.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)
