It is with great sadness that we announce the death of MQ’s CEO Lea Milligan who passed away following a sudden illness on Monday the 15th of April.
Our thoughts are with Lea, his children and family as well as his many friends and colleagues.

Huge fans of this new Top Ten from @EmbraceComplex which is unique (and important) in being framed around the shared priorities of neurodivergent people - rather than specific needs linked to a diagnosis.

We know people diagnosed with ADHD and autism, known as #AuDHD, experience unique strengths and challenges.
This article does a great job of shining a light on this complex intersection and the need for tailored support. What do you think?

The priority setting included #neurodivergent people, their families & carers, and all relevant professionals. These Priorities will help guide future research to address the systemic barriers many neurodivergent people face.
