We’re a society for neurodivergent and disabled students at UAL. Everyone is welcome, whether formally diagnosed or self-identified, and regardless of the type of neurodivergence or disability.
Our aim is to create a space where neurodivergent and disabled students can meet, connect, and build community. We plan to run weekly events, you’re free to attend as often as you like.
Events are relaxed and activity-based, things like tea and a chat, walks, creative workshops. Offering a chance to meet others, pick up new skills, or just unwind in a low-pressure environment. We keep things low-stimulation and try to make everything as sensory-friendly and inclusive as possible.
If you have an suggestions or accessibility requirements you wish to notify us about before attending events be all means contact us via email: ual.neurodiversitydisabilitysociety@mail.com or our Instagram. Also feel free to join our whatsapp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/Fdm2gaX2phNC1jNkpYcq8z?mode=gi_t.
There’s no expectation to come every week, no pressure to talk, and no pressure to participate in anything you’re not comfortable with.
We believe that having a space where neurodivergent and disabled students can connect and support each other is important, and we’re here to make that happen.
If you need more dedicated support, there are university services and trained professionals who can help. We can absolutely be there for each other as peers, but nobody should feel responsible for managing someone else’s mental health. I want this to remain a welcoming space where we can connect and support each other while looking after our own wellbeing, too.
