What They Meant vs. What You Heard: A Free Webinar for Friends & Partners of Autistic People

Sat 26 Sep 2026 10:00 AM - 11:00 PM BST Online, Microsoft Teams

Ever had a moment where you know you didn't mean it that way, but somehow the message landed completely differently? Or on the flip side, you asked a simple question, and suddenly you're in an argument or things are feeling awkward? This is a regular occurrence for many autistic people.

In this free, live webinar we talk about the gap between intention and impact, and how understanding that gap can change your relationships with autistic friends and partners.

You will learn why these mix-ups happen, why autistic people over-explain, why a question can feel like an accusation. We will share simple ways to close the gap, improve mutual understanding, and reduce arguments.

You'll come away with practical takeaways you can actually use, and the chance to hear from different perspectives and lived experience of autism.

Join CASPA for a live discussion, with real questions and real answers. No jargon, no judgement, just genuine understanding and guidance.
