This ground-breaking initiative, spearheaded by Jude Morrow of Neurodiversity Training International, Gail Walker of The Big White Coach Events, and Grace Bigger of Lushlife, aims to address the limited sensory activities and opportunities currently available on the island of Ireland. The Big White Coach is a mobile sensory experience for adults and children with unique sensory challenges and preferences.

Hide AdJude Morrow, renowned for his work in neurodiversity advocacy, emphasises the importance of these events: "This is an opportunity for families and adults to come together to enjoy positive sensory experiences and for others to witness the potential of inclusive events tailored for Autistic/ADHD kids and adults. As far as sensory activities for the whole family, there aren’t that many and we believe this could be a gamechanger as well as a fun day out."
The Neurodiversity Roadshow promises an array of activities designed to engage and delight participants of all ages. Attendees can expect interactive sensory stations, engaging talks by Jude Morrow and Grace Bigger, and a chance to explore the unique features of the Sensory Coach.
"We believe in the power of inclusive events that cater to the diverse needs of our community. This roadshow is more than just an event; it's a movement towards creating a more understanding and accommodating society for neurodiverse individuals, their parents, and even professionals who want to see inclusive events," said Grace Bigger of Lushlife.
