Asperger Syndrome Conferences
in Wales 2005
The Wales’ Asperger Syndrome (AS) conferences aim to provide valuable insights and information for practitioners and parents living or working with children and adults with AS.
These important events will be of interest to a multi disciplinary audience including practitioners working in services provided by health, social services, education and the independent sectors, as well as for parents and individuals with AS themselves.
These days will also serve as a prelude to a planned national Welsh conference for people with AS themselves, due to take place in the autumn of 2005.
