Little introduction about me....

I'm an #OccupationalTherapist passionately advocating for #HumanRights & connecting humans 🌍

#Neurodivergency is a difference in neurotype:

**Not** a disorder
**Not** a condition
**Not** something to be 'fixed' ot 'treated'

Please don't let your #accessibility attempts head towards, "I'm doing this because it's trendy." How do you prevent that from happening?

Remember, it's all about removing barriers. What might the barrier(s) be for someone who is partially blind, someone with limited hand mobility, someone with a neurodevelopmental disability?

We always need to reflect on what the potential barriers are and how to remove them. That's access.

Hello, my name is Lelanie and I am currently completing a PhD in Population Health Sciences focussing on children's self-care. I am also a fellow of the Higher Education Academy in the UK and worked as a senior lecturer at a UK university. I am interested in #quantitative and #qualitative research. I can see the social determinants of health impacting on child health & am therefore following the #costoflivingcrisis and other social injustice with interest. Look forward to connecting with others.
@justinkownacki useful to know thank you
