I have additional needs

Throughout this site we use this Peach colour to highlight information for young people with additional needs (SEND/ Neurodivergent).

If you have additional needs, if you want to know more about being neurodivergent this page can help.

Assume that I Can – help challenge negative assumptions

Please share the below video to your school, college, family and friends as it really hits hard the point that if people had more positive assumptions about young people with Down syndrome (or any other additional need), then there will be more opportunities for us at school, at work, in relationships, and in other activities. DISCLAIMER – Please be aware this video includes a swear word.
