Neuro-Inclusive Chambers: Practical Insights

ABC Chambers Solutions invites you to a practical, sector-specific session on neuroinclusion in chambers. Nathaniel W. Hawley (Founder, Divergent Thinking UK) will demystify neurodiversity in the context of chambers life, cut through common myths, and share simple, low-cost adjustments that improve wellbeing, collaboration and client service.
