Sensory Processing Workshop 2023

Join us for an engaging and informative workshop designed to empower parents, teachers, and educators in understanding and supporting sensory processing in children. Sensory processing refers to the way the nervous system receives, interprets, and responds to sensory information from the environment. This workshop aims to equip participants with practical knowledge and strategies to create inclusive and supportive environments for children with sensory processing differences.

Note: This workshop is open to all individuals interested in understanding sensory processing challenges, including parents, teachers, educators, therapists, and caregivers. No prior knowledge or experience in sensory processing is required.

Sensory products will be available for purchase on the night. Coffee & Tea will be provided.
