Our new wellbeing campaign is Neurodiversity. Throughout this campaign we will share articles to help us understand neurodiversity, how it can affect people, ways to support our neurodivergent colleagues and share external support organisations in the UK, for those wishing to find out more.
This week we are sharing resources for those looking for further support on Neurodiversity topics. You can find QR codes to all of these support organisations on the poster on UK News download page HERE.
