Launching the very first

Neurodiversity Awareness Day.

A day to celebrate different minds, spark new friendships, and stand together until it's recognised as a national day across the UK.

Celebrate

Honour every neurodivergent mind — autistic, ADHD, dyslexic, dyspraxic, Tourette's and beyond.

Connect

Wear the badge so neurodivergent people can spot each other, say hello and build new friendships.

Campaign

Help us lobby government to make Neurodiversity Awareness Day an officially recognised national day.

Mingle

Small meet-ups in workplaces, schools, colleges and universities — plus outdoor events run by The Outsiders Club.

Spot the badge. Say hello.

Making friends can be hard when you think differently. Our badge is a quiet signal: "I'm neurodivergent too — you're welcome to talk to me."

How the badge works

Made by The Outsiders Club

We run 100+ free outdoor sessions a year — mountain days, bushcraft, navigation and climbing — for neurodiverse children and adults. Neurodiversity Awareness Day takes that sense of belonging further — into workplaces, schools, colleges and universities, where small mingle events help people find each other.
