Support for neurodivergent children

Neurodivergent children may need support in different ways. Every child is unique, but whatever support they need there are a range of organisations that can offer advice and help.

Children who are neurodivergent may be living with one or more neurodevelopmental conditions. These include autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia and Tourette’s syndrome.

This website focuses on autism and ADHD, because local reviews have identified a need for improved access to information and support on those conditions. However, this section also includes links to information on other forms of neurodivergence.
