**CPD Accredited** Neurodiversity in the Workplace Training for Managers — 30th June & 1st July 2026

Creating and supporting neurodiverse teams is both essential and rewarding - and at times, challenging. Many managers want to communicate more clearly, build an inclusive culture, and understand how to support every member of their team. This workshop is designed specifically for them.

On 30th June (full day) and 1st July (morning) we’re hosting our next Thrive Neurodiversity in the Workplace Training for Managers, which will include our Awareness webinar as part of the learning journey.

The course will be delivered by Autistic author, speaker, and trainer Jane McNeice, bringing lived experience and professional expertise that creates a uniquely authentic learning environment.

Across the sessions, managers will learn how to:

- Learn what neurodiversity is and how neurodiverse workplaces are essential
- Recognise key neurodivergent conditions and the strengths and challenges associated with each
- Understand the impact of myths, preconceptions, and discrimination faced by neurominorities
- Understand executive functioning and experience what EF challenges can feel like
- Identify anxiety, meltdowns, closedowns, and sensory needs - and respond supportively
- Improve communication, reduce misunderstandings, and prevent low morale
- Create a more inclusive, sensory‑safe, and psychologically safe workplace
- Make meaningful reasonable adjustments and understand the policies and legislation that support them.

The session goes further to explore real‑life case studies, contemporary attitudes, and practical long‑term strategies for supporting neurodivergent colleagues.

If you want your managers to lead with clarity, compassion, and confidence - and to understand how diversity can truly be an asset - this training will give them the tools to do exactly that.

Every year, more than 7,000 people in the UK die by su***de - the biggest killer of young people. Yet over 70% of those who die were not in contact with mental health services. One of the biggest barriers is stigma.

Stigma stops people speaking up.

Stigma stops families asking the question.

Stigma stops people seeking help.

Despite clear commitments in the Su***de Prevention Strategy, the UK has never run a national public health campaign to reduce the stigma of su***de. We’ve done it for HIV/AIDS, drink‑driving, smoking and COVID - and it worked. It’s time we did the same for su***de.

Philip Pirie has submitted a proposal to government calling for a national, multi‑year, evidence‑based campaign to normalise conversations about su***de and save lives.

If you believe this matters - and that silence is costing lives - please add your name to the petition and share widely:

Every signature strengthens the case for action. Thank you.

Fund a multi-year campaign which should include mass media, social media, workplace toolkits, promotion in schools and universities, media collaboration and clear support signposting. Over five years, this should include development, pilots, evaluation and targeted campaigns for high risk groups.
