An Introduction to Neurodiversity in the Workplace

This session has been part funded by Folkestone Rotary Club and is in collaboration with Shepway Autism Support Group.

In the session we will cover

• What is neurodiversity?
• Why is neurodiversity in the workplace important?
• An overview of the recent Buckland Review on Employment and Autism
• What easy adjustments can be made to ensure a working environment is neurodiverse friendly?
• An overview of Access to Work.
• An overview of simple ways in which recruitment processes can be neuro divergent friendly.
• Effective ways to be more neuro-inclusive for your whole team.

We wish participants to share their experiences and hope that this will help facilitate discussions and ideas.

The sessions will be presented by our CEO Zoe Rodda and one of our team who identify as being neurodivergent.
