Neurodiversity in the Workplace Wales
Conference
Thursday 30th November 2023
09:30 - 15:30 |
It is estimated that 1 in 7 people are neurodivergent, more than 15% of the UK workforce. Neurodiversity can include autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyslexia, dyspraxia and Tourette syndrome. Now, more than ever it is important for employers, managers and educators to consider how they can create a culture of inclusion and belonging in which everyone can thrive.
Attend this informative one-day in-person conference to hear from organisations and projects across Wales that are leading the way in integrating and harnessing the potential of neurodivergent employees and creating neuroinclusive workplaces.
Bringing together colleagues from private sector employers, education, health, local government, and the third sector. Don't miss this unique opportunity to share learning and network with colleagues working to embrace neurodiversity. |
