- **Event Description**: A special in-person  event brought to you by the Leeds Mindful Employer NetworkAbout this EventNeuro-Inclusion at Work: Moving Beyond Awareness to What Actually WorksThis is a very special FREE event for local employers and their employees brought to you by the .Date: Tuesday 31st MarchTime: 9.30 - 1.00 Refreshments provided on arrivalLocation: Answer Digital, 9 Dewsbury Road, Leeds LS11 5DD (Free parking available nearby. Detailed travel and parking information to be sent out to attendees in advance of event).Neuro-inclusion at work can feel complicated — especially when you’re trying to do the right thing.Many employers want to be more neuro-inclusive, but aren’t always sure what that looks like in practice or where to focus their efforts.This event brings together leaders, managers, legal experts and people with lived experience to share what actually helps at work, what often gets misunderstood, and how small, realistic changes can make a meaningful difference.The day is designed to look at neuro-inclusion from three connected perspectives, because change doesn’t sit with one group alone:Senior leaders (SLT) – setting direction, culture and expectationsManagers – translating intent into day-to-day practiceEmployee to employee –how colleagues support, respect and work with one anotherAcross these perspectives, sessions will explore:Inclusive recruitment, from applications and interviews to inductionsDay-to-day inclusion, support and creating safer spaces at workUnderstanding individual strengths and challenges — without assumptionsSupporting people who are questioning or discovering their neurodiversityThe emphasis throughout is on realistic, achievable actions, not perfect answers or complicated processes.Why this conversation mattersAround 15–20% of UK adults are estimated to be neurodivergent, including people with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia and related conditions.Source: UK Parliament, House of Commons Library briefing papers, 2023–2024In the UK, only around 3 in 10 autistic adults are in employment, despite many wanting to work.Source: UK Government Labour Force Survey data, July 2021UK survey data shows that working-age adults (16–64) who are employed are much less likely to screen positive for ADHD (around 14.1%) than those who are unemployed or economically inactive, suggesting people with ADHD traits are under-represented in employment.Source: UK Parliament, House of Commons Library analysis of the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey, May 2024These figures help explain why neuro-inclusion at work matters — and why practical, everyday changes can make a real difference.Who this event is forThis event is for anyone who wants to better understand how to support neurodivergent people at work — from senior leaders and managers to HR, wellbeing and inclusion leads.Speakers and sessionsNeuro-Inclusion in Leeds: A City AmbitionPhil Chan, Neurodiversity Commissioning Programme Leader at Leeds City Council, will outline the Council’s ambition for Leeds to become a city where neurodivergent people — diagnosed and undiagnosed — can thrive.
