This event is over. Join our mailing list to be notified when we publish a recording of it.
Join us to celebrate and chat about neurodiveristy across Imperial and our friends in South Kensington. We will first hear from colleagues about their neurodiverse experiences, before chatting about how we can best support each other as a group.
Everyone is welcome, drop in for as little or as much as you like. We will send you a joining link when you sign up.
