Neurodivergent Staff Network

This group is for staff who identify as neurodivergent, no matter whether that’s autism, ADHD, or something else, and is run by Robin Kramer and Jenny Hamilton (lecturers in psychology). The idea for the group is to provide support for its members, along with a place for them to talk about all things relating to neurodivergence and whatever else they might fancy discussing.

The idea for the network is to provide a space for staff to meet and discuss issues related to neurodivergence, to provide peer support, exchange experiences, and discuss ways in which the working environment can be made more inclusive of their needs.
