We are delighted to announce the first ever TRACK event which is an “Introduction to Autism in the workplace” morning, which takes place at the PTS Academy Stadium, Northampton Town Football Club on Thursday 11th October. So, what can you expect from the event, and who is this suitable for?
What does this involve?
The event will include presentations from a variety of speakers looking at a range of topics including: An introduction to Autism, the benefits which autistic employees can bring to an organisation, supporting your employees and communication in the workplace amongst many other topics. We will be providing practical strategies which can then be personalised to suit your workplace and shall also look at the additional support which is available to your business to allow your employees to fulfil their potential.
As well as the presentations and speakers, we will also be providing bacon rolls in the morning, and refreshments alongside the opportunity for networking. Questions are welcomed throughout and we will be looking to provide support on a practical level to support your business.
Who is this suitable for?
Businesses of any size, structure and industry are welcomed. You may have current employees who require some support or may be looking to recruit new employees with a wide variety of skills. You may have a variety of vacancies available and are looking for a new way of doing things. The Autism Spectrum provides a wealth of potential opportunities across all industries, in America Microsoft are embracing a new diverse workforce, and other companies are following suit across the world. So far we have been speaking to business with 1 current employee, through to organisations with 15,000+ employees, and this ranges from Craft Shops, through to F1 teams and beyond.

We believe that with small changes the workplace can become so much more accessible to people who want to work. From my experience the majority of autistic people do not want charity, they want opportunity. Work with us to help a create spectrum of opportunities which will benefit all of those involved.
