Autism Friendly Club

Autism Friendly Training

The aim of the project is to bring the successful Autism Friendly Club program to the hospitality sector at EU level, focusing on piloting it in Sweden. The project aims to qualify managers and workers in the hospitality sector to provide adapted services and welcome people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

The first block will focus on identifying areas of hospitality facilities that may cause sensory overload or discomfort to people with ASD, such as noisy or bright areas. Work will be done to signpost these spaces and create quiet areas where people can retreat when they feel uncomfortable.

The second block will focus on the training and awareness of workers. To this end, hospitality staff will be educated about the characteristics of ASD and equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to provide appropriate support and service to people with ASD.

And the third block will focus on the adaptation and adaptation of schedules. The project will work to identify the best times for people with ASD to visit hospitality establishments, taking into account factors such as peak hours and busy periods.
