Neurodiversity Celebration Week (17 - 23 March 2025) aims to celebrate neurodiversity, and challenge stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences and neurodivergent people.
Neurodiversity is a socio-political concept, and a biological fact, conveying that every human brain and mind is unique; that we each think, process, and feel uniquely.
Neurodivergent is a self-identity label we can use to indicate that our brain functions differently from the dominant societal expectations of typical.
This could be due to one or more lifelong neurodevelopmental differences such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, or this could be due to acquired neurodivergence due to mental health conditions, or due to brain injury or stroke.
Many members of the Speakers Collective identify as neurodivergent, although neurodiversity is not what we all speak about.
During Neurodiversity Celebration Week 2025, ten neurodivergent members will come together to share our neurodivergent lived experience perspectives in live stream events which will be hosted and chaired by Charlie Hart on behalf of the Speakers Collective Neurodiversity Group.
Charlie is neurodivergent (Autistic, ADHD, Complex PTSD) and a neurodiversity inclusion speaker.
