Festival of Workplace Inclusion 2022
The Festival of Workplace Inclusion has already happened, but...
You can catch up with our session recordings!
A quick introduction
At our first ever Festival of Workplace Inclusion, we explored how to create a better working world for those of us who think, work and learn differently, which is quite a few of us. 15% of the world’s population have a disability. That’s 1 in 7 people. Around 15-20% of us have a neurodiversity such as Dyslexia, Autism and ADHD.
Watch the recordings and gain insights from industry experts and people with lived experiences of neurodiversity and disability. Hear from speakers including Jay Blades, Theo Smith, Diane Lightfoot and more.
