My pricing is on a sliding scale.

My pricing is on a sliding scale, to accommodate different sizes of organisation and different requirements. I am happy to work with you and your budget. 

The costs in the table on this page are the maximum you will pay. As well as my fee you will need to pay travel expenses. If an overnight stay is required, the cost of a hotel and food will need to be added to your invoice. Both travel and accommodation can be estimated at the time of booking.

Where possible, I book my travel and accommodation on the day you book so as to save you money. Once travel and accommodation are booked, I e-mail you to confirm its cost..

A simple presentation that can be taught as a class/group or presented in an assembly to help young people on and off the autism spectrum learn about Autism for the first time. (This is particularly good if you have children in your school who do not know they are Autistic).

This is an assembly or group talk which tells my story of going to America for the first time, the problems I faced because I am Autistic and how I overcame them.

When I go into a school, I always try to find time to do a relaxed concert. This could range from going out into the playground or sat in a classroom. Kids can come and go as they please: dance, sit, stand, lie down etc. I think it’s really good for kids to see an Autistic adult use their interest in their job. As many kids would find the trumpet too loud, I use a Harmon mute (the silver thing you sometimes see at the end of trumpets) to soften the sound a bit like famous jazz trumpet player, Miles Davis.

Does what it says on the tin. Have me give an assembly as part of your disability, diversity, or Autism week, giving kids the opportunity to meet someone with 10 disabilities and ask questions in a safe environment. This session also includes music.

This session gives young people the opportunity to try making sound sandwiches (looping). This is fun and can be delivered to any group, regardless of age or ability.

This session can be tailored for the students’ interests/needs. The session aims to give young people tools and strategies for becoming more independent. It can be really powerful for them to meet an Autistic adult (sometimes for the first time).

Sometimes young people submit questions beforehand, and sometimes it’s just done in the room. This session is always enlightening and interesting.

A session helping young autistic people understand what Autism means to them and feeling proud of who they are.

It can be difficult to talk about periods to young people but I’m happy to do it and have lots of tools to help them understand what happens when and how. This can be delivered at a range of ages.

Young people told me as I did the research for my book, ‘the autism friendly guide to periods’, that they learnt about periods and sex at the same time but they wanted more information on periods than sex, so this is why I developed this session to compliment your year 5 + PSHE/SRE lessons.

This session is for young people who find their emotions too big. It gives them lots of strategies and insights and can be focused on a particular emotion if needed.
