Young people have their own internal challenges, and the mental health and education systems designed to support them don’t always listen or provide neurodivergent-friendly spaces.

They are often in ‘survival brain’ mode, limiting their engagement with people and services.

This peer-led workshop will provide attendees with practical skills, knowledge, and resources to ease the tension and build a better understanding around communicating with young people. You will meet other parents, families, carers and kin who are all facing similar experiences.
