Behaviour, Distress & Regulation

The Kent Autistic Trust describes an internal positive behaviour support team for individuals already supported by the Trust. Its page explains its approach and staff support. This is not evidence of an open, all-age child assessment clinic or a self-pay service for every Kent family.

Ask the Trust about the relevant service and referral eligibility.

Medway Council publishes information about positive behaviour support, professional resources and its Community of Practice. The information page is not itself a referral or booking service for an individual child.

Ask the child’s existing team about relevant support and assessment routes.
