Encouraging news indeed to help both the mental and physical health aspects experienced by so many with neurodivergence. Fabulous way to end the week.

theguardian.com/society/2023/d… @theRCOT @guardiannews is there is a reason you have not mentioned #OccupationalTherapy? Experts for over 120 years in using therapeutic activity. This profession exists, has the skill set & the evidence base!!! Poor reporting, poor gov strategising.
