Feedback from attendees of ASK panel presentations

“I thought the very personal and honest style of presentation was extremely effective.”

“I just want to thank you for the amazing work, there is so much good stuff in here which I will use at home with my son, and at work.”

“The most important thing I learnt from ASK training session was: “understanding from inside perspective”;  “the need to think out of the box, be open to the [AS] individual’s way of thinking, give them time to process”; “patience, more understanding and knowledge”.
