Voice; Choice and Participation

Seminar • Scottish Autism

About the CPD course

Education; health and social care providers have a duty to ensure that autistic people are active in their own lives and not merely passive recipients of services. Scottish Autism is continuously working to understand how we can enable voice; choice and meaningful participation of the people we support. In this seminar we will share learning from across our education and adult services that has informed our practice. Furthermore; we will show that developing practice in this area is fundamental to service improvement.

Scottish Autism

Established in 1968 by a group of parents, we are now the largest provider of autism-specific services in Scotland and a leading authority and advocate for good autism practice. We exist to help those diagnosed with autism to lead meaningful and fulfilling lives and be recognised as valued members of the community they live in. We also seek to share our knowledge and expertise with parents, carers and other professionals in order to support the development of skills and strategies needed to provide the best care and support for autistic people. Building partnerships locally, nationally and internally provides us with the exciting opportunity to learn and share our knowledge of good autism practice with other countries. Our Deputy CEO, Charlene Tait, is on the Council of Administration for Autism-Europe. This is an association gathering almost 90 national and regional organisations advocating for the rights of autistic people from 30 European countries. Using the EFQM Excellence Model, we were delighted to achieve the Recognised for Excellence 5 Star Award in June 2019. We also won the Scottish Award for Business Excellence which is awarded to the highest scoring 5 star organisation in Scotland each year.
