Why might a young person fidget\, withdraw\, avoid an activity\, become overwhelmed\ , seek intense movement or appear unable to follow instructions?

\n \n

This practical session looks at what sensory needs young people with ADHD may experience.  We will consider how one or more sensory needs can affect attention\, arousal\, em otional regulation and participation. 

\n \n

During the session\, we will explore:

\n \n \n
  • How the brain filters\, prio ritises and responds to sensory information
    • \n
  • Why dysregulation can make communication\, r easoning and participation harder
    • \n
  • Ever y child has their own sensory profile
    • \n
  • How to look for patterns in a child’s actions or e motions
    • \n
  • How specific support may help a young person communicate\, avoid\, access or reg ulate
    • \n
  • Practical ways to adapt the envi ronment\, our interaction and provide sensory supp ort
    • \n \n \n

    What will participants ta ke away?

    \n \n
