Why Neurodiversity Awareness training matters in Wales
Neurodivergence is a growing priority in Wales. The Welsh Government's Neurodivergence Improvement Programme and the Code of Practice on the Delivery of Autism Services set clear expectations for public services. Many neurodivergent adults have no formal diagnosis, so understanding and simple adjustments help colleagues and service users whether or not they have a label.
- Reflects Welsh priorities on neurodivergence and autism services
- Supports reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010
- Helps employers recruit and retain neurodivergent talent
