“This isn’t a webinar – you shape the conversations.”
Accessibility and equity
Designed to include different needs and experiences
We want the event to be fully accessible, inclusive and psychologically safe. Please tell us about any adjustments you need when registering. No request is too small.
Possible adjustments
Examples may include:
- Live captions.
- Slides provided in advance.
- A breakout space for sensory regulation.
- Alternative communication options, including chat or emoji responses.
- Regular comfort breaks.
Our equity commitment
We recognise that neurodivergent people can experience barriers shaped not only by neurology, but also by race, gender, class, disability and other aspects of identity.
We commit to:
- Providing psychologically safe spaces.
- Listening to and valuing lived experience.
- Challenging bias and discrimination.
- Sharing power in decision-making.
- Turning talk into equitable action.
Together, we can transform workplace cultures – not just attitudes.

Why Equality and Diversity UK?
Equality and Diversity UK works nationally and internationally to promote equity, diversity and inclusion in education, employment, health services and communities.
Through courageous conversations about race, we can listen to experiences that are too often overlooked, challenge inequality and help shape a better future.
A Transformative Event
Imagine communities where every child feels included, psychologically safe and supported, and where allies challenge racial abuse and help create equal opportunities.
Breaking Chains
Help break the chains of racial discrimination, harassment, victimisation, bullying, anger and isolation so children, young people and families can thrive.
Your Support Matters
Racial discrimination continues to affect local communities. Listening, learning and taking action can help build communities where everyone lives with dignity, respect and equal opportunity.
