What Have Previous Neurodiversity Youth Advocates Said About our Programmes
Q&A with our Neurodiversity Youth Advocate Alumni - Eren Ali Ozcan
Post-16 Neurodiversity Youth Advocate Programme 2023-2024
“Thank you for enlightening me and my fellow students about raising awareness and learning more about SPEDs. I've had a great time with the experience of submitting assignments and completing modules as it made me feel like a university student.
​
-Mehdi Behira (2017-2018)
​
“Since the programme I was able to make a poster to raise awareness for neurodiversity and was able to put it on our school notice board. It was really nice to be able to do something to help the community.”
-Elizabeth Yoon (2023-2024)
​
“The mentors on the programme are very wise who help you to learn a lot in a short amount of time. Lessons were engaging and interesting and speaking with an individual within the SPED community was a highlight for me.”
