A huge thank you to Mercer for their continued support of our Bouldering Project at indirock_ 🧗

Their funding enables neurodivergent children and young people to access a physical activity that supports both their physical and emotional wellbeing in a trusted and safe environment, particularly for those who may not be able to access mainstream sports. 💙🧡

☀️ Summer Update from STRM ☀️

While our regular sessions take a short summer break, the STRM team will be busy behind the scenes reviewing our data, strengthening our governance, planning the next six months, and working on some exciting developments that we'll be sharing soon. 👀

It may seem early, but now is actually the perfect time to start thinking about the transition back to school. If you have a copy of our Supporting Your Neurodivergent Child book, turn to page 94 for our top tips on what you can be doing over the summer to help make September a little less overwhelming.

Thank you for your continued support. Have a wonderful summer, and keep an eye on our page for more updates soon! 🧡

Have a fab summer and see/speak to you soon xx

🌶️Our final Neurospicy Minds for Women session before the ☀️ summer break was a lovely evening of connection, belonging, laughter and shared experiences.🌶️

After the session, some of us headed out for a meal together to keep the conversations going. (Not everyone is in the photo as our other spicy ladies had to head home.)

It's great to see the friendships and support continuing beyond the sessions. Thank you to everyone who joined us this term. Have a wonderful summer, we'll see you in September! 🌶️❤️

Thank you to Tanika Rayleigh Neurodivergence for supporting this project so far!

As new programmes open, this is where you’ll see them first.

Recent milestones include:

• Shortlisted for a national SEND award for partnership working
• Supporting Your Neurodivergent Child resource distributed to over 18,000 families
