We provide specialist outreach support to children whose behaviour is causing serious concern. Triangle has experience working with children with a wide range of conditions including autism, Asperger syndrome, ADHD, sensory impairment, brain injury and mild to severe learning disability. If you have concerns about inclusion that relate to a particular child, contact social services first and suggest that they make a referral to Triangle, as it cannot undertake outreach work on an independent basis. We work directly with children and families, we teach and advise parents and professionals, and offer consultation to teams and organisations. Our team includes disabled teenagers, disabled adults and parents of disabled children and Triangle is advised by three consultative groups of children and young people. We have particular expertise with children who communicate without speech (including deaf children) and children whose behaviour creates a risk of exclusion from their family, school or community. We offer independent assessment, advocacy, support and communication assistance. Our team includes specialist social workers, therapists, psychologists, interpreters and paediatric nurses. We offer bespoke training to professionals, volunteers, parents, carers and young people, a range of short courses at Triangle and across the UK. Recent feedback: ‘Excellent, inspiring, fun; very helpful and constructive’.
