Teacup Episodes - Autism and Exercise #5

We are back....and with a bang as we talk about the problems parents of special needs children are facing when EHCPS are changed and children are being left without a school place! 

The Let's Talk Autism Podcast is back with a bang! Today we are talking to Corinne from Finch of Autism Life Instagram account. Corinne shares her own diagnosis journey as well as debating the recent media article claiming there is a way of reversing autism and a "cure."

This episode is brought to you from autistic voices talking about what advocacy means to them. A lovely chat with Connell, Sez, Jo, Gray and Mason about inclusivity in schools, advocacy and what it means to be an advocate for neurodiversity. @sezfrancis1@conns. 1@autistic_advocate_for_crohns@jospear15@sfvetneph#autism #advocacy #autismawareness #letstalkautismpodcast #neurodiversity #actuallyautistic

Back for 2024 today Meesh n Chrissy speak to Autistic, dyspraxic actor Jordan Winn. Jordan was diagnosed  in his 20s and tells us what that diagnosis process looks like. Jordan also talks about what social anxiety looks like to him as an autistic man. He talks about producing and directing his own film about his experiences! We cannot wait to see more from Jordan in the future! 

On this week's episode Meesh n Chrissy catch up about the awards and have a half term update before looking at what happens when an EHCP gets rejected at panel. EHCPs are more and more being rejected at panel and SEN Support Plans being issued instead. You don't have to accept this! You can appeal and Meesh talks about this from personal experience and how she appealed and had the decision over turned. Please do get in touch if this is happening to you and we will help advise as much as possible 🩷 You are not alone! #letstalkautismpodcast #ehcp #sen #autism #neurodiverse #education #school #sensupport https://www.kids.org.uk/sendiass https://www.globalmediation.co.uk/service/special-educational-needs-disability/
