It can be difficult recognising signs of anxiety in people with autism and easy to assume anxiety when not. This session allows reflection and development of awareness of anxiety and autism. During the course you will: • Develop appreciation of what anxiety might look like in autistic individuals whilst realising anxiety affects people differently. • Improve your understanding of simple strategies and reasonable adjustments that can reduce anxiety for people with autism to make their experiences easier. Level of participation: Students will be given the chance for discussion and to share information and experiences with the trainers and the rest of the group, but this is optional."
