Bedford

Autism Bedfordshire’s services help break down the barriers to social participation for autistic people and their families by providing places where they can go and feel comfortable, accepted and not judged by society. With the encouragement and support of specialist trained staff we help autistic people build their confidence, self-esteem, and social skills through taking part in social activities and mixing with other people. Furthermore, we help them to develop practical skills and independence which will improve their prospects in life and help them be part of the community. Our aspirations are for them to have the same opportunities as people who are not on the spectrum, so that they can enjoy fulfilled and rewarding lives. How we can help The physical and emotional stress of looking after an autistic child or adult is a huge strain on the parents and we want them to feel that they are not alone in their struggles. They can come to us for practical advice, information and emotional support so that they will be better equipped to cope with and care for their autistic children and any other siblings. We provide opportunities for them to have a guilt-free break from their caring responsibilities, safe in the knowledge their autistic child is being well looked after by staff who understand the challenges that autism can present. Communities Finally, we raise awareness of autism in the community in order to reduce misunderstanding about the condition. Through training and informative talks we educate schools, local businesses and community groups about the sort of behaviours that an autistic person may display and how best to respond to and be supportive of them. With our increasing presence at community events, members of the public can also become more knowledgeable about and accepting of autism. In this way we hope that autistic people will find it easier to engage with and integrate into mainstream society.

Success4School’s mission is to EMPOWER FAMILIES-in all ways, always! From our family services to our private, accredited academy, we value ‘learning their way’. We are innovative in our approach to break the rules- as we set out to ensure each learner feels valued and finds deep growth- academically and as a whole person. Success4School has a unique & critical mission to provide strengths-driven, integrated learning which promotes differentiation. We value continuous growth and personal discovery but never uniformity. We specialize in the smart & scattered, the witty & worried, and the determined over-comer… We are educators taking a stand -firm in our belief there is more to education! I founded this firm, surrounding myself with passionate people with specialized training, to work with the unique neuro-biology of the individual who struggles with weak executive skills. What we found is that all minds are unique and any kind responds to hands-on learning grounded in building learners who think critically and that are self reliant, owners of the learning process. As an educational diagnostician with a background in regular & special education, a passion in neuroscience, plus specialized AD/HD coach training, I am one of those fast-brained people that can't get my hands on enough research. I love what I do and do what I love. I’m far from the square, the rectangle, the circle, or the triangle- I AM the SQUIGGLY in the world of working with kids of all ages. I am one of those people that specifically thinks differently than most- and I like to think that that’s okay since I work with lots of kids that are different- cause I think all kids are different… I am not the person who buys a piece of swedish furniture and opens the instructions- I’m the one who says ‘let’s see how this goes together’ tool-belt diva type-who goes at it- without the manual. People say I have this way with kids, one parent nick-named me ‘the kid whisperer’. Anyone who knows me will tell you I don’t whisper, but I think my way, is just the way I am- I think kids want something our society does not often provide: a genuine, authentic, real person who asks,

Peterborough

Here at City of Peterborough Futsal Centre we try to do the upmost and best we possibly can to provide a high quality, fun and enjoyable session each time you join us. We try to create a respectful and caring environment for everyone to enjoy during their time at Club. We are all ONE big futsal FAMILY here at City of Peterborough Futsal Centre. COPFC players will pride themselves on playing attractive in and out of possession futsal. Our aim is to provide futsal to as many boys and girls of all ages, abilities, race and religion and a fun and safe environment for them to express themselves on the court with professional coaching and support. We offer sessions for boys and girls from 18 months to 16 years of age. COPFC players are encouraged to play with freedom in their game to try something new without having to fear of making a mistake. We are here to develop players both on and off the court. Coaches will offer support throughout and will be in a positive manor to prepare them for everything. Coaches will ensure players are confident with their ability to make decisions based around their attacked, their defensive formation, individual high and low pressure when introducing new strategies. Players are encouraged to think for themselves for example creating passing lines, when to dribble or pass, 1v1's, finding passes into open space to break down the defence and how to lose their defender. Each team will be taught a handful of strategies and as a team will decide what they feel is the correct one to use in the situations they experience. We are beginning to create game changes, players who are confident on the ball and can change a game but also being disciplined in their play. Being able to play in team strategies if in possession or out of possession. To be able to succeed at the above players need to find the love for the game. Players sessions and fixtures will be suitable to challenge their individual abilities. All players develop at different rates and we want to ensure training and fixtures are tailored to this and not put players in the deep end. We support the development of all. Over the last 6 years, COPFC have gone from strength to strength and this is just the start. Come and join the family.

Based in Devon and South Yorkshire, Hoarding Disorders UK – Community Interest Company was originally set up by Jo Cooke and Amanda Peet. It is now run by both Jo Cooke and Jo Cavalot. Mission Statement Hoarding Disorders UK is a not for profit Community Interest Company. Our aim is to provide practical hands-on support as well as expert advice to those affected by the varying levels of hoarding disorder, ranging from the chronically disorganised to those with extreme clutter. We support both the individuals and their families throughout this process which helps them to reconnect with each other as a family unit and the wider local community. We have a responsible and unique person-centered approach using professional decluttering, life skills and home organisational skills. We provide an ethical, sustainable and quality approach throughout our work which includes the use of our 8-step plan, support groups, coaching, research, education and training. We also work collaboratively with other professionals and organisations in contact with these individuals and families. Jo Cooke is a Director of ‘Hoarding Disorders UK – Community Interest Company’ and also runs her own business ‘Tapioca Tidy’. She is also the author of the book “Understanding Hoarding” which is fast becoming the “go to manual” for hoarders, their families and agencies that work with people exhibiting hoarding behaviours. She has appeared in the Guardian newspaper, Take a Break magazine and other publications. She has also appeared a number of times on BBC Radio and in a BBC documentary ‘Inside Out’. Jo was selected as a finalist for the Thames Valley Venus Awards’ Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018. Jo is a professional declutterer and organiser who has a very professional, calm, non-judgemental and “makes sense” approach to helping you reclaim your space. Jo previously had a varied career in charitable organisations, human resources, project management, bookkeeping and the civil service, but realised she had a flair for decluttering and organising when she had to sell the family home that her father had lived in for more than 30 years. She has a wealth of experience and skills required when working in cluttered environments and takes a responsible and empathetic approach to the needs of people she works with. Jo runs three hoarding support groups in Bracknell, Newbury and Reading, Berkshire.
