# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Bargaining and Organising for Neurodiversity Part 1
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 07 May, 2026 at 10:00 am – Fri, 08 May, 2026 at 05:00 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: In this two-day in person course for union reps and activists, we will learn the meaning of the term ‘neurodiversity’ and related terms such as neurodiverse, neurodivergent, neurotypical. 

This course will enable participants to be confident in Identifying and understanding six neurodivergent conditions, understand aspects of neurodiversity and neurodivergent experience, e.g., spectrum, social judgements and understand the social
model of disability and apply it to neurodivergence.

This course will give practical advice, support, and strategies to help participants identify barriers that workplaces and working conditions present to neurodivergent workers and measures to remove or reduce them, identify workplace changes that will benefit neurodivergent workers and understand the role of the trade union representative in bargaining, campaigning, and representing for change. 

This course will be tutored by Janine Booth, Britain’s leading trainer of trade unionists about neurodiversity. After over 25 years of being actively involved in RMT, Janine now runs Red in the Spectrum, providing training and support. She is neurodivergent (autistic / ADHD / dyslexic-type specific learning difficulties), so brings lived experience of the issues that the training covers.
