Cygnet Programme Information Afternoon

Monday 9th July 2018 1:00pm - 3:00pm

Greenbanks, Westfield Road, Margate

The Cygnet programme is designed for parents and carers of school age children and young people with autism. The programme is designed to:  increase parents understanding of autistic spectrum conditions.  help parents develop their knowledge on how a child with autism experiences the world and what drives their behaviour.  guide parents through practical strategies they can use with children.  direct parents to relevant resources.  give parents the opportunity to meet with other parents who have had similar experiences and to gain support and learn from each other.
Parents and carers of school aged children diagnosed with Autism are invited to attend an information afternoon to be held at Greenbanks, Westfield Road, Garlinge, CT9 5PA between the hours of 1:00pm and 3:00pm on Monday 9th July 2018.
