Join Flourish CIC, Yellow Beacon CIC and the Manchester Social Economy Alliance for our upcoming Lunch & Learn event as we explore the topic of neurodivergence among women changemakers in Greater Manchester.

We’ll begin with a panel discussion and hear from some of the women in the Flourish network as to how neurodivergence has shaped their entrepreneurial journeys, and then open the floor for a group discussion on some of the key emerging themes – all over an informal lunchtime session.

This is your opportunity to be inspired, connect with peers and share your own entrepreneurial stories as we come together as a force for positive social change!

This is what some of our previous participants shared after attending:

“I have been going through depression and anxiety with low moods. I needed something to help me. Mindfulness has really helped me come out of my worries and focus on the moment. I just wish the course could last forever, it’s been life changing!”

“I felt I needed something to improve my mental health, which is why I attended the course. The guided practices and exploration of these in the group were helpful and I feel it has made me try and focus on the here and now, and not what is coming – being in the moment. Kirsty was so welcoming and calm and friendly, and it was a pleasure to have this opportunity to learn from her.”

This course is kindly funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.
