Survey into people’s experiences of Adult Autism Services in Calderdale and Kirklees

A small number of adults with Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC) have contacted Healthwatch Calderdale and Healthwatch Kirklees to discuss some difficulties that they are having in getting an initial diagnosis, and in accessing appropriate clinical support following a diagnosis.

Because of this they would like to have a better understanding of the issues that people with ASC face in Calderdale and Kirklees, so that they can raise them with the appropriate organisations and hopefully improve people’s experiences.

To do this we have designed two surveys, one for people with ASC to complete so that they can tell us about their experiences, and another one for the parents, partners and carers of adults with ASC to use to give us their views and ideas.

More information is available on their website here

Sport works consultation on setting up a transitioning program for older teenagers.

Sport Works are excited to share with you that we are in the process of setting up a transitioning program which will help older teenagers mix with young adults with additional needs so they can find out what services they might be able to access when they turn 18.
The group will run for 1.5 hours a week for 16 weeks and we are hoping to get the project up and running by march.
We are looking at the program taking place at Kirklees college in the evenings which will allow young people to access multi-sport alongside receiving advice and support from yourself and PCAN as well as other relevant partners.
I would greatly appreciate your views on the project. Are there any days or times that you think would be most beneficial to the young people we are aiming to reach out to?

Can people contact Anna Smithies (anna@sportsworksltd.co.uk) if you have any thoughts / input.
Thank You
