What is ‘Neurodiversity’?
Neurodiversity embraces neurological differences like autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia as something to be valued. People who are considered neurodiverse often have higher-than-average abilities and different cognitive styles of thinking allowing for real creativity and innovation.
Why is this important?
The neurodiverse population remains a largely untapped talent pool and are often overlooked for their talent. By providing opportunities for neurodiverse individuals to reach their aspirations, we can help them gain valuable core industry skills, allowing for more real-world experiences focussing on their strengths for creativity and innovation in the workplace.
Who can apply?
If you are on the autism spectrum, or have a related condition, and have a background in coding and development, we’d love for you to apply! We also encourage those who live regionally to also apply.
