Managing work travel

Firmly out of lockdown, work travel has been on the rise, and I’m increasingly finding myself on trains and staying away from home. Whether this is an afternoon client meeting, a team away day or perhaps travelling further afield that involves an overnight stay – these all involve using public transport and being in unfamiliar places. Your work travel may even involve going abroad or being on a client site for a few months.

Whatever your position, even if you’re travelling for non-work reasons, this blog looks at why this may be especially challenging for autistic people, while also providing some advice on what can potentially help.
