Proposed Vision Statement

"For North East London to be a genuinely neuroinclusive place where neurodivergent people of all ages—including autistic people, people with ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, Tourette syndrome and other neurodivergent experiences—feel understood, respected and valued; can access the right support at the right time; thrive in education, employment and community life; and are empowered to live independent, healthy and fulfilling lives."

Collaborative Statement

"We would welcome an opportunity to discuss this strategy and explore how it could be strengthened to better reflect the needs, experiences and priorities of neurodivergent communities across North East London."
