Who is it for? 
Neurodiversity in the Screen Industries is for everyone working in television in the UK. 

What will you learn? 
The session will provide a greater understanding of the concept of neurodiversity and how you can apply this to make your workplace and productions more accessible for neurodivergent people. 

All our modules are informed by Diamond data and provide you with an understanding of the current landscape of disability representation in television in the UK 

What are the takeaways? 
By the end of the session, you will have an understanding of neurodiversity, the impairments and conditions that are included under this umbrella term and how to identify and reduce challenges neurodivergent people may experience in the broadcast industries.
