Whats it like to be Neurodivergent?
Whats it like being an Autistic girl?
Whats it like to be a boy with ADHD ?
Jo is an autistic woman, Tigger is an autistic ADHD man, they found growing up hard, school did not always suit them, their interests did not always match the interests of their peers, dating and relationships were tricky.
Now they are adults they have not grown out of their neurodivergence, and life is not always easy, but they've picked up a lot of tips along the way.
At this session you'll hear humorous accounts from each of them about what their teenage years were like and what their adult life is like. Then you can have lunch with them and chat and ask questions if you want to.
