What is Mockingbird?

We offer a day program three days a week supporting children aged

What is Neurodiversity?
Neurodiversity is both a natural and valuable form of human diversity. It is a term used to describe people who are wired differently, the 5% not the 95%.
Children who have a negative experience of feeling different, suffering from loneliness, fear, and anxiety, and for whom their everyday world feels like a threatening judgemental place.
Often these children are assessed with one or more of the following diagnoses:
ASD, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, SPD, Anxiety, Giftedness, Learning difficulties, and the like (or no formal diagnosis at all).
A diverse and self-determining bunch who need special understanding and support to achieve wellbeing and success in life.
