Hosted by ChangeHR, this one-day, in person event is a great opportunity to explore the importance of understanding neurodiversity in the workplace. 

In the UK, one in seven people are neurodivergent. However, many choose not to disclose their neurodivergence due to stigma, misunderstanding, or a lack of support. This makes creating an inclusive environment more important than ever. Despite growing awareness, neurodivergent employees often face barriers that prevent their strengths from being recognised and fully utilised.
