Free ND-friendly workshop #4 for MK residents age 14+ exploring learning differences and strategies with K - ND Specialist Teacher

About our Free ND Workshops MK

The sessions are for people with ADHD, autism and related neurodivergent needs, including those who are diagnosed, waiting for assessment, self-identifying, or supporting someone neurodivergent.

Each workshop covers a different real-life topic, including ADHD strategies, relationships, study, work, masking, late diagnosis, nervous system regulation and AI/tech tools.

Sessions are informal, practical and ND-friendly. No pressure to share, make eye contact, sit still, or perform.

Please note: this project is grant-funded and places are only available for Milton Keynes residents. Please check out our other events (and sign up to our mailing list for future events) which will be open to other groups of people.

About this workshop

This workshop is delivered by K (they/them), specialist neurodivergent teacher.

K will explore neurodivergent learning, why school may have felt difficult or confusing, and how learning can be approached differently for ADHD, autism and related neurodivergent needs.

This workshop is open to people aged 14+, including young people, parents/carers and adults reflecting on their own school or learning experiences or currently in higher education.
