#Neurodivergent led, #neurodiversity affirming ‘CONNECTION, COMMUNITY & GROWTH’ mentoring & education programmes for neurodivergent children & young people.
GROVE will no longer be using this platform (we will check in every now and again but not post). Please find us on most other social media platforms including the one that has a lovely blue sky to look up to.
Congratulations to GROVE Neurodivergent Mentoring & Education. @GrOve_Org have been shortlisted for the Community Organisation Award for Disability at the National Diversity Awards 2025 in association with @HSBC_UK! Good Luck! #NDA25#NDA

We explain the difference between selective mutism and reactive mutism in our new position paper.

Did you read our new blog 'What does ‘neuro-affirming’ mean for Autistic young people?' If so, you'll have seen GROVE's Neuro-affirming Foundations.
As a team, we also recognise that we must remain open, reflective and humble and therefore always willing to learn.
This booklet explores how #monotropism, a #neurodiversity affirming theory of #autism may impact young people. It provides ideas to support at home & in other settings such as school to help prevent #autistic#burnout.

If you are #autistic do you find it harder to
understand your #interoception#sensory system?
Our interoception system is what tells uswhen we are
hot/cold/hungry/thristy /in pain or if we need the
toilet. Do you have any tips to share that help you?
