Neurodiversity in the City is a new City Belonging Network, bringing together representatives of the Neurodiverse community at workplaces across the Square Mile.
It is part of a wider family of City Belonging Networks launched as part of Lord Mayor Alastair King’s mayoral year. The network will bring together representatives of the Neurodiverse community at Square Mile workplaces, to:
Create and promote opportunities for the community to meet one another through events and activities, and feel a sense of belonging.
Support the City of London Corporation and other City institutions to be the best possible ally to the Neurodiverse community.
Promote engagement from members of the Neurodiverse community in the civic and cultural life of the Square Mile.
