Thank you everyone for your contributions today at the #NDSummit . Such passion and creativity in the room. Such great ideas for us to take forward. Shelley Russell Dr Sara Munro (She/her) Therese Patten West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership rhona radley

Thanks to attendees West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership #NDSummit for their insights: “There is a perception that neurotypical people support neurodivergent people - that’s wrong and sets a power imbalance. We need neurodivergent people in the workplace”

An excellent article which reflects many of our recent discussions here- time to be clearer about our use of language, and ensure we ensure adequate focus on serious mental illness.
