AgendaÂ
Arrive from 6.15pm for 6.30pm start.
6.30 - 6.40pm: Updates from Phil, your host (more info about Phil below) 6.40 - 7.00pm: Sharing current problems with the group - either to 'crowd source' fixes or just to share. 7.00 - 7.10pm: Special Interest presentation - optional - volunteer needed. 7.10 - 7.20pm: Break. 7.20 - 8.00pm: Reviewing the notes we created at the previous meeting about, "What do we expect, want, need for a community to be autism friendly?" NB: Your input will be valuable whether you were there in October or not. And the changes will actually benefit a much broader spectrum of the populace - we're just the vanguard for a better future. 8.00pm Close.
The HostÂ
Phillip only discovered that he had an autism spectrum condition in middle-age, and has spent the last nine years catching up on all the little and big things that make life different and difficult. He receives autism coaching in one-to-one sessions, and has a strong ethos of paying-it-forward to help others. His work history is varied, but mostly technical, with very good computer skills, and a large stock of experience and knowledge. Now working part-time, he’s offering a helping hand as a Talented Amateur By Experience, not being willing to claim that he is an Expert. Contact him at phillip.bicknell@gmail.com  if you have any questions.
