“Approximately 15-20% of the population has a neurological difference. Instead of labelling people with deficits or disorders, when we use the term neurodiversity, we take a balanced view of an individual’s unique strengths and challenges. Many challenges neurodivergent people face have more to do with the environment and systems they are placed in, often designed by a majority population.”
“Dyslexia is a common neurodifference that affects millions of people worldwide, and an estimated 10% of the UK population. It is a neurodifference that affects a person's ability to accurately and fluently read, write, and spell. Dyslexia is often diagnosed in childhood, but many people may not be diagnosed until later in life.”
“ADHD is a neurodifference that affects an estimated 5-10% of children and 3-4% of adults worldwide. It is characterised by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with daily functioning.
Research suggests that males are more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD than females, although some studies suggest that this may be due to differences in how the ADHD is presented rather than actual prevalence rates.”
