Race And Neurodiversity Event

We are excited to announce the second event in our new series on intersectionality: “Race and Neurodiversity,” powered by CMS. Intersectionality remains a crucial topic, and this series aims to address the compounded disadvantages and challenges faced by Ethnically Diverse and Neurodiverse individuals.

Event Details: Date: October 8th Time: 12:30 pm – 1:45 pm Format: Virtual

Why This Event Matters: Our previous event focused on Race and Gender, attendees reported overwhelmingly positive feedback:

  • 89% recommended the event to others.
  • 84% learned something new
  • 79% learnt or heard something they wouldn’t normally have access to
  • 88% of those in positions of authority gained actionable insights

 

The Reality Check:

  • 15% of the UK population is Neurodiverse, equating to 13 million people.
  • In a workforce of 1000, approximately 130 individuals are Neurodiverse.
  • Only 15% of Neurodiverse adults in the UK are employed.
  • Ethnically diverse individuals face increased stigma around Neurodiversity, leading to under-diagnosis and underreporting.
  • 80% of disabilities are invisible, raising the question of how well we support these employees, clients, and customers

 

Key Focus Areas:

  • Strategies to support and enable ethnically diverse and neurodiverse colleagues.
  • Ensuring the voices of ethnically diverse colleagues are heard
  • Recognising the unique strengths and challenges faced by these individuals
