Episode 14 - In Conversation with...Chris Barlow from Remtek Workplace

Hello! Welcome to the Autism Wellbeing Project's new podcast, the Autism Wellbeing Podcast, which has been created by the community members who use the services that they provide to autistic adults in and around Cheshire and across the UK!Joining Sarah on her debut as co-host on the show today is Business Development Manager at Remtek Workplace, Chris Barlow. Remtek Workplace is a business that creates inclusive solutions for neurodiverse & disabled people based on their personal requirements, not just by their diagnosis. From assistive technology to ergonomic solutions, they go above and beyond to help tailor accessibility recommendations to help countless employees and students perform the best that they can in further education and the workplace.Being labelled as "the best kept secret", Remtek Workplace has made its presence in the neurodivergent world by being this year's headline sponsor for The National Neurodiversity Shows, which will be in the North West this week alongside The Autism Wellbeing Project and many other neurodivergent-affirming businesses from the region and beyond! After being there for over 20 years, Chris talks with such passion about the work that they do, the changes he's seen to the assistive technology over the years and how COVID changed their business model for the better.Chris shares about why taking part in events like The National Neurodiversity Shows is so important for him, how Access to Work effects his colleagues and how her assistive technology helped with his child's schoolwork.Get in touch, we'd love to hear your thoughtsWe're excited to let our listeners know that the amazing social enterprise that funded our podcast, The Autism Wellbeing Project, is going to be at the National Neurodiversity Show in Wigan on the 11th June!Come on down and meet the team, who can't wait to talk to you about the services they provide, the free activities they have available including our podcast and want to meet as many of you as possible. The show beings together a wide range of organisations, speakers and exhibitors all there to celebrate neurodiversity, share knowledge and to bring inspiration - sounds like a brilliant day to us!Tickets are available now: click here to get your tickets!!
