Neurodivergent Course

This workshop will explore the relationship between neurodivergence and birth trauma, drawing on lived experience and emerging evidence to highlight the barriers faced by neurodivergent parents. It will examine how differences in communication, sensory processing, routine, informed consent and emotional regulation can influence maternity experiences, and identify practical approaches that professionals can take to provide more personalised, trauma-informed and inclusive care. Participants will leave with a greater understanding of how recognising and responding to neurodivergent needs can improve experiences, reduce the risk of trauma and help ensure every parent feels heard, respected and supported throughout their maternity journey.
