Neurodiversity Q&A meetup

Are you a neurodivergent person or do you wonder if you might be?
Do you have questions about Autism or ADHD or experience challenges that you want to discuss with other neurodivergent people?

This event is organised by Naomi and Lauren.

Naomi is a speech and language therapist who has worked with neurodiverse children and teenagers for 14 years. In her current post Naomi’s work involves neurodevelopmental assessments and offering support within a mental health team. Naomi has always had an interest in neurodiversity and has a diagnosis of dyslexia and potentially ADHD.

Lauren discovered that she is autistic as an adult. After struggling to find easily accessible information about strategies that could help her she founded www.colourmeautistic.com; a website with practical advice and helpful strategies for adults in all areas of life.

This session will start with a short structured discussion between Naomi and Lauren at the start followed by a Q&A session (questions can be submitted beforehand or on the day verbally or in writing) with a chance to mingle and chat in the venue at the end for those that want to do so.

It's an unlicenced venue so feel free to bring along some beers or a bottle of wine - or if you prefer, there is free tea and coffee at the venue.
