Divergent Communities CIC - Launch Event

Are you a third-sector organisation based in South Tyneside?

We would love you to join us for the launch of Divergent Communities CIC. A community driven neurodiversity training organisation, from the people who brought you Divergent Consulting.

This is your chance to find out how we can help you support the brains within your organisation and the communities you serve. It is also our chance to understand how we can best support you in supporting them.

1 in 5 of the general population are neurodivergent. But, since they are living life in a world not designed for their brain, they have a MUCH higher chance of falling into vulnerable categories. Luckily, there are also a lot of lovely CICs and charities in South Tyneside supporting vulnerable groups.

We want to help the neurodivergent community as much as we can by helping the people who help these vulnerable groups.

So please join us to celebrate the launch of Divergent Communities CIC.

The afternoon will begin with a short introduction from Rosie, founder of Divergent Communities CIC, sharing the vision behind the organisation and why this work matters locally. We are also delighted to welcome Ruth Parker, Chief Executive of Emmaus North East, who will speak about her experience working with Rosie and the impact neurodiversity training has had within her teams.

We will then have a 45minute interactive workshop and work out how we can best support our community.

Bubbles and other refreshments will be provided.

It will be a really lovely afternoon – we look forward to seeing you there!
