Neurodivergence & Co-occurring Conditions

Understanding how different neurological, psychological and physical experiences can overlap, and how individual support needs may affect working and everyday life.

An important distinction: Neurodivergence is not a single diagnosis. Some people have two or more recognised conditions. Other experiences, such as sensory differences, may be characteristics rather than separate diagnoses. None of the examples below applies to everyone.

Understanding the whole person

Co-occurring conditions and overlapping needs should never be used to make assumptions about someone's abilities or independence. The most helpful support is based on individual experiences, preferences and professional assessment where appropriate.
