Celebrate Neurodiversity by building awareness and support!
Neurodiversity is an umbrella term to include a range of neurological differences that impact the way individuals process information and communicate differently.
Although every neurodifference has a set of traits that are used for diagnosis, every neurodivergent individual has a unique set of strengths and challenges.
Neurodiversity Celebration Week is an opportunity to build awareness as well as discover help and guidance.
The organisers offer a programme of free events on key topics delivered by inspirational speakers across a range of backgrounds and professions.
You can sign up for as many sessions as you like and receive a recording if you are unable to make the live session.
If you suspect you may be neurodivergent yourself or know or manage individuals who are then these events are invaluable!
