‘What do you call a person with a disability? A MATE’

To celebrate the 2025 International Day of People with Disability, come along to hear about one family’s experience of autism.

Presented by Fiona Lembo, a devoted mum and advocate for autism awareness, who will talk about raising her son Alessandro. Alessandro is on the autism spectrum and communicates through his two great passions: animals and art.

During the talk, you will see some of Alessandro’s artwork and books and may get the opportunity to see his creative process.
