ASPECT training

‘I really enjoyed the course as it gave me some great insights into autism and ways in which I can increase the effectiveness of my communication and counselling skills in this area. It was a lovely small group which made discussion easy and everyone who ran the course and attended it were lovely. I would definitely recommend it to others.’ Penny, July 2024
