What an amazing 3 days. Have learnt so much and met the most amazing people. A great turnout by the 'fighting 9' and so much to take back to my Brigade. # DND @fbunational @EasternFBU @JanineBooth

Red in the Spectrum has been working with @fbunational for a few years now, running courses and helping the union set up its Disabled & Neurodivergent Members’ forum. These 2 videos show the great work FBU is doing. And our @JanineBooth pops up in both! redinthespectrum.co.uk/fire-brigades-…

12% of #autistic folk have experienced #homelessness; 1-2% of the general population has. That might be an underestimate. The relationship between #neurodiversity and homelessness is an important issue for housing agencies, support services and campaigners redinthespectrum.co.uk/neurodiversity…

And the sex industry has diversified with the increase in digital communication. But sex work is stigmatised, which amplifies stereotypes across gender, race and class – and disability and neurotype. redinthespectrum.co.uk/neurodiversity… #sexwork #neurodiversity

Public discussion around issues such as gender, bodily autonomy and neurodiversity is increasing. But this does not mean that neurodivergent sex workers or clients are new. Sex work has historically included workers from various social demographics.

Sometimes, one anecdote sums up an issue pretty neatly. This dyslexic postal worker's story illustrates the importance of the social model of disability in effectively addressing neurodiversity at work. redinthespectrum.co.uk/social-model-o… #socialmodel #Dyslexia #neurodiversity

Today, we are running part 2 of our course for @CWUnews. We have spent this morning participants' work since part 1. It has been great to hear about successful representation of neurodivergent union members, challenges to employers, and making the union more neuro-inclusive.

A lovely venue for training land use campaigners Shared Assets about neurodiversity today. Sheffield Central Library.
