We offer an initial assessment using the 3Di Parents Questionnaire. This accurate and quick screening assessment can be helpful for parents who are considering undertaking a full diagnostic assessment. 

NICE Compliant ASC Assessments

We are a multi-disciplinary assessment and consultation service for children and young people and their carers who require a formal diagnosis of Autism and require specialist support.

Autism & PDA Awareness Training for Parents

PAST run regular workshops around the UK for parents and carers.  Our workshops are informative and interactive and you will have the chance to chat to other parents and carers too.

 

Siblings Support

PAST recognises that autism and PDA impact on the whole family.  We offer one to one, online and small group workshops for siblings so that they have a better understanding of autism and PDA.  Feedback from this service is incredibly positive. 

Online Consults

PAST can offer support to parents, families and professionals anywhere in the world by the use of Zoom.  We are able to provide bespoke advice or training using this technology.  We can offer a one off appointment or a series at a time that works for you.

What people are saying

 
Laura was great, so knowledgable and helpful. I now feel I have the strategies I need to support children with PDA more effectively
 

“My passion has always been working with autistic children and teenagers - I believe that they have so much to offer, and yet the education system often fails them because staff do not have the right skills and experience.”
