Description

On this weeks show we're celebrating neurodiversity week!


Its estimated that 15-20% of the UK's population is neurodiverse. This means that 1/5 of the population have different learning styles and thinking patterns are outside of what society considers as being typical.


Whist its recognised today more than ever there is still a lot of work to be done to support neurodiversity.


I talk about the challenges I faced growing up prior to getting diagnosed with dyslexia and how that affected my pink without me knowing. And subsequently now later in life why I'm asking to be referred to see if I have ADHD too. The traits I have of both of these massively impact and affect my day to day life and I explore some of the things I do and will adopt moving forward as i begin to understand my brain better and gain my full pink back.
