Neurodiversity Celebration Week
Monday 13 March 2023
It’s Neurodiversity Celebration Week!
Neurodiversity describes alternative thinking styles such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, Autism and ADHD.
This week we shine a light on how schools, universities and organisations can benefit from different thinkers and how all neurological differences should be recognised and respected as any other human variation.
We are challenging stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences. With the aim to transform how neurodivergent individuals are perceived and supported by organisations and to recognise the many talents and advantages of neurodiversity in the workplace.
