22.01.2022 The presentation, A Full Life with ASD, last night was very well received. Mark and Leanne provided a very factual and thought provoking insight into what many children with ASD may experience every day of their lives. As parents, therapists, teachers and carers, Mark’s experiences through his childhood and as an adult gave us a deeper understanding of how debilitating sensory issues can be. Even more importantly, Mark and Leanne gave us first hand knowledge of how to address and support children through these episodes. The presentation was humorous, sad, and certainly entertaining!

21.01.2022 A sticky but sweet way to end our social skills groups this year!

21.01.2022 From honesty to appreciating silence.

20.01.2022 Just a friendly reminder that there are no social skills groups tomorrow. Enjoy the long weekend!

12.01.2022 Several situations have happened around the world where a family has been removed from the an airplane because their child who is on the autism spectrum had a m...eltdown due to inconveniences that could have been prevented. Travel can be stressful for anyone let alone a child on the autism spectrum, and for Salama and I this has always been a concern for us and something we try to our best to prepare for. What we have learned through this video is that there is a "Special Service Code" DPNA which stands for "Disabled Passenger with intellectual or developmental disability needing assistance". Travellers can use this code with the travel agent or airline when booking a flight which will then allow them to list the support they need such as boarding the flight early, getting a hot meal upon boarding, or ensuring that you are all sitting together, essentially anything that can be done to make the travel experience as soon as possible. The problem here is that Airlines and Airports are not required to cater to the requirements when you use a DPNA code, more importantly many passengers around the world don't even know it exists. That is why it is so important to raise awareness for the DPNA code, to push our airlines and our airports to acknowledge the code and ensure that travel is inclusive no matter what your needs are, so that we can all experience travelling this world with safety and dignity. Much love and God bless. Thank you Travelport and Etihad Airways for raising awarness about the DPNA code and making this video possible, and for all the work you are doing to make global travel inclusive and safe for everyone. #TravelUnified For anyone looking to learn more about the important work Travelport, a system for airlines to book flights, are doing you can check here: www.travelport.com/travelunified Instagram: @khalidalameri Group: Khalid's World Group Content Ninjas: Adnan | Liz O'Byrne Nabulsi Music: Epidemic Sound

06.01.2022 Due to Covid-19 we are no longer offering face to face appointments. But this doesn’t mean therapy stops! All therapy will now be offered via Telehealth and phone consultations. This allows families and therapists to maintain regular therapy, contact and connectedness through a safe, convenient and secure method. We look forward to seeing you all in person as soon as it’s safe to do so! Until then please stay at home, wash your hands, and stay safe!

05.01.2022 Red isn’t ‘more spectrum’ than green or blue. Apples aren’t ‘more fruit’ than oranges. That’s not how it works. If you only read one article about autism this year, read this one. If you only share one article this year, share this one.

03.01.2022 Our Term 3 Social Skills Groups commence tomorrow! We look forward to seeing all our enrolled participants then!
