Workshops and Training Catalogue
Supporting neurodivergent individuals in the context of suicide prevention requires more than standard training it demands approaches that are specialist, evidence‑informed, and shaped by the voices of those with lived experience. Autistic people face unique risk factors, communication differences, and systemic barriers that can increase vulnerability while simultaneously making traditional mental‑health pathways less accessible or less effective. As a result, professionals, families, and services need training that reflects the realities of neurodivergent lives, not generic assumptions.
The Here to Help training offer is built on the principle that meaningful change happens when learning is co‑designed, neuro-affirming, and context‑specific. Sessions have been developed in collaboration with autistic individuals, practitioners, and sector experts to ensure that content is not only accurate, but deeply relevant and grounded in lived experience. This approach strengthens protective factors, enhances relational safety, and equips people with practical strategies that genuinely work in real‑world settings.
By investing in specialist training, organisations and individuals can build environments where autistic people feel understood, supported, and safe environments where early intervention is possible, distress is recognised sooner, and suicide prevention becomes a shared, informed responsibility.
This catalogue outlines a range of courses and workshops for autistic/neurodivergent individuals, families, carers and professionals designed to build confidence, competence, and compassion across all settings, ensuring that every learner is equipped to make a meaningful difference.
