Description
The Access and Learning Strategies (ALS) team is here for neurodivergence and mental health study support. We offer one to one support, workshops and groups. You don’t have to be diagnosed to come along.
For New Year 2024 we are having a Thinking Differently social. You are invited to this social event to have a chat, enjoy some refreshments and meet up with like-minded people.
Neurodivergent thinking is different from neurotypical. ‘Thinking differently’ can be a useful strategy for problem-solving, often bringing insights and ‘out of the box’ thinking. Come along and celebrate thinking differently!
You’ll be able to find out what we do, ask us questions, and give us feedback. Please come along and say hello.
