Spreading the word and supporting others
At autisticgals educating people about how autism presents differently in women, girls and other marginalized genders, is the main aim.
Sarah Jane Nuttall is available to deliver presentations and workshops to corporate, educational and community environments.
Her presentations are well attended and have resulted in many people recognizing their own autistic traits and either self-identifying or seeking diagnosis.
Her presentations are for all genders and are also suitable for parents and partners of autistic people.
MMU guest lecture, 3 JUNe 2024
Amazing students
Thank you so much to Manchester Metropolitan University for hosting me again. I delivered a lecture to MSc Speech and Language students about autism and communication. The students were incredibly receptive. The lecturer was so clued-up about theory around autism. I thoroughly enjoyed myself!
online zoom presentation, 10 APRIL 2024
Wonderful uptake
Thank you so much to Manchester Metropolitan University for hosting me. I had a warm welcome and look forward to working with MMU again. The event sold out which is testament to the need for this sort of outreach work. The online chat was again supremely helpful and supportive, with people sharing advice and resources. This is what it is all about!

Home comforts
This was a presentation delivered from the comfort of my own sofa, with the comfort of pyjamas and a blanket. The lovely people who logged in increased my comfort further. A special shout out and thank you to Dr Zoe Crompton fro keeping me right with the IT and questions. Thank you to those who joined us!
presentation at house of books and friends, 7 february 2024
Fantastic venue, lovely audience
This time I delivered my presentation in a beautiful bookshop on King Street in Manchester. The setting was wonderful, all dark wood and dimmed lights. I was even more excited because I was sitting in the chair that Miriam Margoyles had used for a recent book signing!
As ever, the audience were supportive and we shared our stories and advice after the presentation. Books from my recommended reading list were available to purchase. I would recommend the bookshop and staff, particularly as an autism-friendly environment. Check them out on Instagram:

Talk at leeds beckett university, 12 december 2023
A Fantastic Evening
I shared my story as a late-diagnosed autistic woman along with a lecture on how autism presents differently in women and girls. The audience were hugely support and knowledgeable themselves. Spreading the word, sharing experiences and advice is what it is all about so that we can support and empower one another to discover our authentic selves.
LUNCHTIME PRESENTATION at ROLLS-ROYCE SMR SEPTEMBER 2023
An Amazing Uptake
With a presentation aimed at engineers I was well received by both those who turned up in person and those who dialled in for a voluntary lunchtime meeting. I was also available afterwards for one-on-one discussions. Not only did the female engineers find plenty to think about, but partners and parents also appreciated the chance to listen and share.
