An incredible Stride Success Story!

At this time of year, we want to share some good news! Huge congratulations to Jack J, who started this month as Admin Assistant at Crystal Car Care UK and is already settling in brilliantly 🎉

Jack is a neurodivergent adult who has benefited from our Independence Coaching through the Pathways to Work scheme, in partnership with Advance Employment Hub . His coaching, employment search and interview preparation were led by Eamonn (Employer Engagement Officer/Independence Coach) and he was perfectly matched to this opportunity created by Jake (Head of Employment Services). We’re excited to watch Jack thrive in 2026!

Eamonn shares "JJ has been a pleasure to work with, he was open to advice and ideas. This is his first real job. He was supported to understand employer expectations and also what he can expect from being in employment. This was new to JJ and a lot during our Coaching sessions. I have spoken with his employer a few times and he is very happy to have JJ working with him. Having visited JJ in his workplace doing his job, even though it has only been a short time so far, he looks very comfortable doing something that he enjoys and the interaction with his employer is great to see…"

A big thank you to Dawid and the Crystalcarcareuk team for this wonderful new partnership – we can’t wait to see what’s ahead!

Well that is a wrap for Stride 2025!

What a year it has been! Each and every staff member at Stride has worked unbelievably hard this year to keep delivering the forward thinking, specialist support that we were built on.

It is still important however, to remember to look back, and think of just how far we have truly came. We have tirelessly built something truly special for neurodivergent people, in just 3 years.

on top of having outstanding (and kind of scary!) numbers to look at, we are also grateful to have had several 'breakthrough moments' this year. To name a few:

- Delivering training to Aston Villa FC
- starting to nationalise, and set up an Alternative Provision for 16-25 year old neurodivergent people.
- levelling up our video game Seven Studios
- sponsoring our first Directors Dinner Doncaster Chamber
and much more!

As always, a huge shoutout to our friends and partners: Better Bodies UK - Employment and Corporate Training Solutions Ltd CALDT Doncaster Autism Service Georgie’s Wombles Mind Wellbeing CIC Advance Employment Hub DICE Enterprise Doncaster Deaf Trust Scawthorpe Scorpions Girls U11

See you all in 2026! 👣💙

2025 draws to a close for the Stride office! Today was our last office day all together before the Christmas shutdown period.

We had our annual Christmas fuddle today and exchanged Secret Santa gifts. We don't just care about our clients and the businesses we work alongside, it's clear we're all actually pretty fond of one another!

We officially close for the year on December 24th, see you in 2026! Our first day of operation in the New Year is January 5th.

Everyone be good! Santa's still got some days to decide whether you're getting coal or not...

I know what you're thinking... That's the same chair Shez was sat in during his pop quiz! My, you're observant.

Miles' turn, what do we want to do with the socials going forward? What simple changes can go a long way for neurodivergent people? Back to basics.

At Stride, we believe in constantly learning and developing so we can continue to deliver the best possible support for neurodivergent people.

We were recently joined by Verna Morris, who delivers these sessions to trusts across the UK, for the first of three training days focused on motivational interviewing and neurolinguistic programming. Verna’s background includes specialisms in brain injury rehabilitation occupational therapy, bringing a wealth of practical, real world lived experience to the session.

The training was informative, engaging, and genuinely fun! We can already see how this learning will translate into meaningful support for the individuals we work with.

Christmas DND! Again, last one of the year! Thank you so much everyone involved for helping us with our mystical pursuits this year.

Dan, Dungeon Master and our Coaching Team Leader, has been elated with the response DND club has gotten this year. More in 2026! If you'd like to attend, reach out below or speak with your coach.

So! Last month we took to the streets of sunny, sunny Doncaster to ask the people what they know about neurodiversity, and of those that knew, what did they make of the current landscape of support and aid in this area.

A few people unsure what neurodiversity means, a few people kind of know what it is but not confidently, and those that know what it means also unfortunately know of the difficulty navigating such a thing.

Thank you for everyone who took the time to speak to us, more to come! We'll do it again, maybe you'll revise for next time?
