Welcome to Neurodivergence Wales

Helping to improve the lives of neurodivergent people and their families in Wales.

Welcome to Neurodivergence Wales, the national neurodivergence site for Wales.  On the site you will find information about what neurodivergence is, and what services and training opportunities are available online and across Wales.  The website is helping to deliver the Welsh Government ND vision and strategy and has a key place in ensuring that Wales is a neurodivergent friendly nation.

There are also a wide range of free downloadable resources that have been developed with neurodivergent people, parents/carers and professionals from across Wales.

Together we can help improve the knowledge, awareness and understanding of neurodivergence to make positive and lasting changes to people’s lives.
