Brighton and Hove Frontline Network in conjunction with Diversity and Ability, will be running an event to explore the topic of Neurodiversity.

A bit about the event
1 in 6 of the UK population face disabling barriers every day, many of those barriers are faced by people with hidden disabilities.

Have you ever considered how these hidden differences and learning isolation might be a factor in the cycle of recurring homelessness? Do you recognise any neurodiverse differences in your own clients or, indeed, colleagues?

Diversity and Ability will look to raise awareness of neurodiversity, and what can be done to harness each individual's strengths, and reduce their challenges. They will then explore how we might improve how we, in the homelessness sector, work with those we support affected by this issue.

Read this blog on DnA’s work with Crisis around digital inclusion and homelessness.

There will also be the usual opportunities to chat and network with other Frontline Workers over a lovely coffee, and we will also be looking to explore what topics you would like us to cover in future events.

This is a free event and you can register here.
