About the event

What does neurodiversity mean to young people today? How do they see the challenges and opportunities ahead? In this dynamic panel debate, five inspiring young advocates—representing leading UK charities supporting individuals with Dyslexia, ADHD, Tourette’s, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, and Autism—will share their insights and lived experiences.


As members of the UK National Neurodiversity Youth Council, these young leaders are at the forefront of change, regularly speaking at international conferences, engaging with policymakers, and working to address inequalities in education, healthcare, employment, and economic independence. Their mission? To ensure that neurodivergent young people are heard, valued, and empowered.


Join us for this thought-provoking session, chaired by Dr. Tony Lloyd, where our panel will explore the realities of growing up neurodivergent, challenge misconceptions, and discuss what true inclusion should look like for the next generation. Expect honest conversations, fresh perspectives, and a call to action for a more neuroinclusive future.


This is a free online event via Zoom.
