Tickets on sale for unique training experiences at Brentwood Prep School
Posted on 5th Jul 2024 in School News, Events
Tickets are now on sale for two transformative training experiences: the Virtual Dementia Tour and the Autism Reality Experience, being held at Brentwood Preparatory School on Monday 12th August. These events will provide attendees with an unparalleled opportunity to gain a first-hand understanding of what it might be like to live with dementia or autism.
The Virtual Dementia Tour is a groundbreaking, scientifically and medically proven method designed to give individuals with healthy brains an experiential insight into the challenges faced by those living with dementia. This tour utilises patented sensory tools and instructions based on research, allowing participants to experience the physical and cognitive impairments that accompany dementia. This immersive experience aims to foster greater empathy and understanding among caregivers, family members, and the community.
In addition, the Autism Reality Experience offers an innovative, hands-on training session designed to simulate the sensory processing difficulties encountered by individuals on the autism spectrum. This immersive experience helps non-autistic people comprehend the sensory overload and communication barriers faced daily by those with autism. By stepping into the shoes of someone with autism, participants can develop a deeper empathy and practical strategies to support autistic individuals in their personal and professional lives.
Both training experiences are crucial for anyone looking to better understand and support individuals with dementia or autism. These sessions are ideal for healthcare professionals, educators, caregivers, and anyone interested in making a positive impact on the lives of those affected by these conditions.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to gain valuable insights and practical knowledge through the Virtual Dementia Tour and the Autism Reality Experience. Further information is available on the training2care website or tickets can be purchased directly:
