Neurodiversity refers to the natural variations in the human brain and encourages us to recognise the strengths of individuals who think, feel and experience the world differently. Approximately one in seven people in the UK is neurodivergent, meaning you will be extremely likely to be supporting neurodivergent individuals in your role as a Community Link Worker.

In this session led by Nelly Whaley, Training Manager from Salvesen Mindroom Centre, we will cover the following session objectives:

• Define what neurodiversity means.
• Recognise and use key terminology associated with neurodiversity.
• Provide an overview of common neurominority groups and their prevalence rates.
• Identify key traits, differences, and strengths of various neurotypes, with a focus on ADHD.
• Engage in an interactive case study
• Apply approaches that are known to support neurodivergent individuals.
