If you saw BBC One's Songs of Praise at the weekend, you will have spotted Kirstyn Oliver, Children and Families Minister at Christ Church Beckenham, sharing details of her fantastic initiative, the Sensory Tray Bible.

By using sight, touch, hearing and where possible, taste, the trays are about presenting Bible stories in as an accessible way as possible for everyone.

Raising awareness and acceptance of autism and neurodiversity in churches and community groups has been a lifetime calling and passion for Kirstyn, who has run workshops with the Diocesan Children and Young People Tema as well as around the world.

As founder of Alma Autism, her ministry is now being recognised nationally, as she has been shortlisted for a National Diversity Award.
