Our mission

Make it national

We're lobbying the UK government to officially recognise Neurodiversity Awareness Day — first held Tuesday 23 March 2027 — and we need your voice.

1 in 7

people in the UK are thought to be neurodivergent.

Isolation

Many neurodivergent people find it hard to build friendships and feel connected.

Recognition

A national day drives awareness in schools, workplaces and communities.

All year round

23 March 2027 is the focus — not the limit

The national date gives us one big moment to be heard together. But standing up for neurodivergent people doesn't stop when the day ends — we advocate every week of the year, and we'd love you to join us whenever it suits your people.

Set your own date for your establishment. Schools, colleges, universities and workplaces can hold their mingle events, badge days and awareness sessions on whichever day works for them — an induction week, an assembly slot, a staff wellbeing afternoon, or any other moment when people will actually turn up.

Mark it on 23 March 2027, or mark it whenever you can — both count, and both strengthen our case for national recognition.
