Our next monthly Cafe Autistique discussion group will be talking about self-advocacy, which is the art of being able to speak for yourself. It is a subject that is very close to what Leeds Autism AIM does and we hope that ideas from this session will be used to help further enable autistic adults in Leeds to use their voice.
The session is on Tuesday 28th May from 5:30pm to 6:30pm. It will be led by two of our autistic staff members and is for autistic adults who live in the Leeds area. Cafe Autistique takes place at the Lovell Autism Hub, which is at this address:
