Programme Outline

Half-Day Neurodiversity Awareness Workshop Outline

First Half
Understanding Neurodiversity, the Adult Experience & Communication Challenges

Delegates build essential understanding of neurodiversity — exploring Autism Spectrum Condition and ADHD in adults and how each presents in frontline service interactions. They apply this to realistic housing and customer service scenarios, recognising neurodivergent behaviours frequently misread as non-compliance, aggression or deliberate obstruction.

Second Half
Communication Adaptation, Equality Act 2010 & Inclusive Practice Commitments

Delegates practise adapting communication and applying reasonable adjustment principles to frontline service delivery, identify the neurodivergent scenarios most common in their own role, and leave with specific inclusive practice commitments to implement from day one back in service.
