Description
Neurodiversity is the term that describes the naturally occurring variation in the human brain which can impact how we interact with other people, how we process information, our attention, mood, coordination and other brain functions. Although neurodiversity includes both neurodivergent and neurotypical thinkers, it is commonly associated with certain conditions or differences such as dyslexia, ADHD, dyspraxia, autism, Tourette's syndrome and others. Recent studies suggest that 1 in 7 people could be neurodivergent, meaning that organisations that fail to meet the needs of their neurodivergent staff, customers and service users are neglecting a significant portion of the demographic.
