UPCOMING EVENTS

Calling all dads of children or Adults with an Asd...Our new Dads/Male Carers Social Group meets on the last Thursday of the month. We normally meet at a local hotel for a meal and drink.
A casual get together with other dads/carers who like you parent a child/Adult with special needs..So if the idea of a meal out with a few drinks sounds good let us know and we will book you a seat..Any questions all our contact info can be found in the ABOUT section of this page.. Cheers, John

Coming up at The Treehouse for all parents of Asd children with stomach, digestion and bowels problems. We have Naturopath Karlene Georgiadis coming along on Tuesday May 8th at 7.00 to chat to us and share her knowledge regading these topics.

Let me know if you would like to attend....

This is from Karlene regarding her visit:

My most popular topics include digestion and the gut- brain connection and I also like to touch on detoxification. Because I will be addressing parents I am hoping to make this talk very practical with many ideas that can be taken home and implemented fairly quickly. I am very passionate about my work and would welcome questions at the end (and possibly during). I suggest a format including a 30 – 40 min talk followed by ample question time and possibly even time at the end for a cuppa and informal questions where I would be available for people to approach me individually.
