Supporting Mental Health of Autistic Adults at Work Showcase Event
Come along to our showcase event where School of Humanities and Social Sciences will share the findings from our recent Wellcome Trust funded ESTEEM project.

Autistic employees often struggle with workplace socialising and office environments, despite supported employment being recommended as a psychosocial intervention. However, can supported employment work as a mental health intervention for autistic adults?  

You will hear from academics and autistic colleagues, as well as visualise our findings in an online artwork display.

Our guest speaker, Jamie Knight from pluslion, will share some of his learnings from ten years of employment with the BBC.

Hosted by project team Dr Lisa Harkry, Dr Trish Holch & Dr Suzie Wang
