The Care Social

Our weekly podcast explores key issues in social care, and this week, we’re celebrating Neurodiversity Celebration Week 2025 with a great discussion on neurodiversity in the workplace.

Barry Price is joined by Saskia Van ‘T Hoff, a neurodiversity advocate and work colleague, to explore:

  • What neurodiversity is and why it’s important to recognise different ways of thinking
  • The common misunderstandings neurodivergent people face at work
  • How small changes, like clearer communication and flexible work arrangements can make a big difference
  • Why workplaces that embrace neurodiversity benefit everyone, not just neurodivergent staff

Saskia shares her thoughts on how workplaces can support neurodivergent employees, from practical adjustments to creating a culture where people feel safe to be themselves.
