Diagnosis or exploring come hang out, share stories, and connect with awesome folks who celebrate all kinds of brains and ways of thinking.

Join us for a warm and welcoming networking event designed specifically for the neurodiverse community to come together, share ideas, and support one another's ventures.

This space is created with community in mind, with the aim of support people to thrive by encouraging and uplifting each other while also considering goals for the North East Neurodiverse community as a whole.

Neurodiversity Flourishing aims to help everyone live not just a life, but a good quality of life.

Feel free to bring anything you need to feel comfortable. The event is structured but flexible! You can dip in and out of event parts and stay as long as you like. With limited numbers and small tables, we keep the atmosphere calm and manageable.

The overhead lighting will be off with softer lighting in the room, but there is a small buzz in the space so please bring loops or earbuds if needed. A quiet, naturally lit space is also available. This is an inclusive event where stimming and navigating the event in your own way is fully supported.
