Neurodiversity Celebration Week 16th to 20th March 2026
What is Neurodiversity Celebration Week?
Founded by Siena Castellon in 2018, Neurodiversity Celebration Week is a worldwide initiative that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences. It aims to transform how neurodivergent individuals are perceived and supported by providing schools, universities, organisations, and others around the world with the opportunity to recognise the many skills and talents of neurodivergent individuals, while creating more inclusive and equitable cultures that celebrate differences and empower every individual.
Neurodiversity Celebration Week 2026 in the UK runs from 16th to 20th March 2026 focusing on transforming how neurodivergent individuals are perceived and supported in schools and workplaces. The global initiative aims to challenge stereotypes, highlight skills, and foster inclusive environments.
