The Toby Henderson Trust

29th January 2025assistanthead teacher

What an amazing morning we have had with the Toby Henderson Trust. The resources and information they shared are invauable. They have put a few together to share with those who couldn’t make it today.

Autism Understood: For many parents just starting their journey , we wanted to signpost you to a great website called Autism Understood. This website has been created by Andy Smith, who is dual diagnosed autistic and ADHD. The content has been written by autistic individuals to gain a greater knowledge of what it means to be autistic for young people, but it can also be beneficial for family members and professionals to read too. More details can be found here: Autism Understood.

Nest Approach – We discussed how there can be different approaches on support children through a meltdown. This is called the Nest Approach. Again, in partnership with Andy Smith this has been written by autistic adults. Please see the attached document. He also has suggestions around co regulation and how to support our children when they are beginning to feel overwhelmed.

Cuppa and Cake Group For all upcoming sessions and dates of the cuppa and cakes support groups for parents, carers and family member, they are always available to view on our website: Autism Hub Events – The Toby Henderson Trust (ttht.co.uk). You can also register via this link too.

Grandparent’s Group : We run an online support group for grandparents. More details on this and how to book can be found here – Support Groups – The Toby Henderson Trust

Girls Group : We also run an online group for families of autistic girls. More details on this and how to book can be found here – Support Groups – The Toby Henderson Trust

Webinars: We also run free online webinars for parents and family members via Zoom (there’s no need to have your camera or microphone at all- a lot of parents are multitasking when they’re listening to our webinars. We cover a range of different topics which are delivered by our clinical staff as well as experienced family support members. You can view upcoming webinars on our website: Webinars – The Toby Henderson Trust (ttht.co.uk).

Our Facebook page: We have a Facebook page for the Autism Hub where you can keep up to date with our service but also events and resources that might be helpful:(10) Facebook.

We spoke about an occupational therapist who is sensory trained to support children with sensory differences. You need to refer via the GP. On how to do this please follow the below steps if the GP is unsure of the service.
Ask for them to send a TASK

Introduction to Makaton workshop for families:

We are offering a free ‘Introduction to Makaton’ Family Workshop on Monday 24th June, 10.00am-12.30pm, delivered by Makaton Tutor Anna Melling from Talk to the Hand Makaton Training (limited places available).

TTHT ‘Out & About’ in the community:

We understand through feedback received from families that it can be pretty tough, when your ‘cup is already full’ to come along to somewhere new and access support for the first time with people you have never met before. That’s why the team are so passionate about finding ways to break down those barriers and get ‘out and about’ in the community so families can meet us, have a chat and feel comfortable and reassured to come along to access our services at the autism hub.

We decided this summer we would add to the many ways we do this by planning a local ‘Walk & Talk’ event. This is a chance for anyone to meet us and join the TTHT at the Autism Hub Team on a relaxed walk and talk along the South Shields Coastline.

Wednesday 17th July 10am – 11am.

Full details can be found on the poster attached. No booking is required for this event.
