Each of the Treating Autism roadshows features wonderful professional and parent speakers.
They will share their knowledge, experience and simple nutritional tools. Their aim is to help improve negative autism behaviours and symptoms and make a positive difference to your child’s health and quality of life.
Cost of each show: £10.00, including lunch. TA members will receive a refund after they attend the event (non-members can join on the day!).

Treating Autism is a Journey – One Family’s Story
Nina will share some of her experiences, including tips on implementing a clean diet and increasing variety of foods with picky eaters. Her belief is that there is no limit to what our kids can accomplish with the right support.
There will be tea and coffee with snacks throughout the day. During the last hour we will offer lunch and there will be an opportunity for chatting informally to our TA team and other parents.
We would like to thank the Big Lottery for funding our charity and enabling us to continue to support our community of parents.
We would also like to thank our event sponsor, Mandi Mart. This has enabled us to provide a much-needed socializing opportunity for parents that will follow the presentations. www.mandimart.co.uk
