One parent who is part of the Talk about Autism community said: “I have just joined this group and I have already found it helpful reading through some of the other posts. It makes me feel less alone in all this.”
How do I watch the webinar series?
The Talking Tuesdays webinars are available on demand so you can watch them at a time that suits you.
A new webinar will be posted on the last Tuesday of every month – with topics ranging from mental capacity to getting an autism diagnosis and writing a will.
The latest Talking Tuesdays webinar is on gender differences and masking in autistic young people. It is hosted by Dr Laura Hull, a researcher at the University of Bristol, who focuses on autistic people’s mental health across their lifespan. Her current work explores masking in autistic children and young people using co-produced methods.
Talk about Autism was created by Ambitious about Autism in partnership with TalkTalk.
