Neurodiversity seems to be a hot topic of discussion lately. Famous singers such as Lewis Capaldi and Sia and actors such as Ryan Gosling and Channing Tatum, have discussed their neurodiverse conditions. Lockdowns and social media have driven many adults to have startling realisations about their own neurodiverse conditions. It seems suddenly – all at once – the world has become aware that 15-20% of people have different types of brains. (NZ citizens and residents free with ID, others pay listed price.)
