I hve been working in the Early Years sector for almost 4 years now. In September 2024, i will be starting my Masters in Applied Child Psychology. 

Hello!  I am a specialist speech and language therapist (MSc Speech and Language Therapy) with 13 years of experience in mainstream (Primary and Secondary), centres and special schools.  I am a huge advocate of helping school staff to feel confident about helping their pupils with SLCN.  As such, I help to run the Facebook group Speech and Language Support for Schools.  For all those who work in schools, we would love to see you in there!  Nursery staff are also welcome! I love working for Speech & Language Link, as it allows me to spread awareness of SLCN and support pupils on a much wider scale.  We create award-winning school-based screening and intervention software packages, used to spot and provide therapy children with SLCN.  I look forward to chatting to you soon!

Hi everyone, I'm Torie - Head of Communities and Products (Digital Resources) at the Mark Allen Group, so your go-to person for all community-related queries. Whether you'd like to contribute content, have a technical question about using the community, or are interested in showcasing your organisation, please do get in touch here.  I hope that everyone finds the community space to be supportive and useful. 

Awesome Archie officially began during the lockdown of 2020. Like most people, being tasked with staying at home, Awesome Archie struggled… as did many other families with children who have neurological differences. We decided to try and help those families… as well as trying to help ourselves.  We managed to write and publish four books, all explaining about neurodiversity.  We have provided hours of tutoring and online art therapy sessions (free of charge) and have been a source of information for parents and carers either in person or online. Anything we don’t know,, we will help you to find out! Awesome Archie (non-profit organisation) has continued to grow from strength to strength and is now what I (Rebecca Clapcott – Founder of Awesome Archie) do, fulltime. Both Awesome Archie and I also travel to several schools across Dorset and Hampshire to provide free educational workshops and in-school support as often as we can and I am currently (voluntarily) providing several children with regular one-to-one support.

I was a special schools teacher for 28 years then an ICT SEN Advisor for a local education authority before setting up my own Assistive Technology company doing consultancy, assessment and training in the area of Assistive Technology. I am a council member for the British Assistive Technology Association and the producer of "The Power of Assistive Technology film series.  I am a freelancre trainer with Neurobox as well as an international speaker  at events here in the UK at The Dyslexia Show,  BETT Show & BDA groups around the country

Empowering the Neurodivergent Journey Why are there not enough school places for Autistic children, particularly those with Special Educational Needs (SEN)? Why are waiting lists for diagnostics, along with mental health care for both children and adults so long? How do I understand myself or my Neurodivergent child better? Why does everyone view me or my child so negatively? These questions have been on everyone’s minds for decades. Through our EndeeSphere App we want to answer your questions, shine a bright light on the road ahead, and provide you with the people and resources to ensure you and your child’s potential are fully reached. Within the App, we offer live weekly learning classes, support groups, and provide helpful material for Neurodivergent individuals who might be at home, school, or in the workplace. Our founder, Jude Morrow, who is autistic himself, was inspired to create this organisation after witnessing the challenges faced by families who struggle to find affordable resources and support. The same struggles Jude and his family experienced in the 1990’s are just as prevalent today and as a result, Neurodiversity Training International is Jude’s global vehicle for change.
