It’s only one week to go until our Neurodiversity Champions’ drop-in session for colleagues to ask any questions and share their personal experiences as part of #ADHDAwarenessMonth.

We're looking forward to hearing from our speakers this week at our Black History Month Event talking about the #BHM2025 theme: “Standing Firm in Power and Pride.”

This #DyslexiaAwarenessWeek, we hear from Jax, a Neurodiversity Champion who talks about getting her diagnosis later in life.

#DyslexiaAwareness #DAW25 #RaisingTheVolume.

Open at 6pm today.

Call on 0300 123 1922. #ForTheLifeYouWant #SiaC
