Session information
- Title:
- Participation – Sensory Environments
- Description:
-
This session will explore the way in which the senses can affect the ability of some children and young people to take part in certain activities or situations. Later sections will identify some common examples of sensory challenges and explain how it may be possible to facilitate participation by making adjustments.
The word order ‘disabled children and young people’ is used in this and all the Disability Matters sessions. This is because disabling factors are most often external to the person and are therefore something that everyone in society can do something about. - Hierarchy:
- Children and Young People with Mental Health Needs, Autism or Learning Disability > Learning Disability and Autism > Personalised Support > Environment and Sensory > Further Resources > Participation – Sensory Environments
