Let's Get Chatting online new course

Let's Get Chatting is a new free social communication course developed by Autism Berkshire, exploring social conversations and social interaction.

The course is for small groups of autistic young people and adults and offers a friendly and supportive setting.

Topics covered during the course, which runs over seven classes, include: Why we have conversations; body language; conversation volume and tone; facial expressions; eye contact; joining a conversation; and ending a conversation.

The first Let’s Get Chatting course will take place online and is open to autistic young people aged 16 to 19, who are registered with a GP surgery in the Berkshire West NHS area – the Reading, Wokingham and West Berkshire council areas. 

To register an interest in you or a young person in your family taking part in this course, please email us at contact@autismberkshire.org.uk – put Let’s Get Chatting in the subject line – or complete our online referral form - include a daytime phone number.

We will then get in touch for an informal discussion, to make sure that the course is suitable for you or a member of your family.
