Sandymount to become neurodiverse-friendly village in new campaign

A community group in Sandymount advocating on behalf of autistic and neurodiverse children hopes its work will bring about change on a citywide level.

Neurodiversity Sandymount was founded in recent months by parents of children who have unique needs, including conditions such as autism or dyspraxia. The group, which has partnered with national autism charity AsIAm, aims to bring changes to the local area that will help their children feel more at ease in daily life.

Nessa, a mother who is involved with the project, says that the organisation has submitted a proposal to Dublin City Council with the hope that their efforts can gain wider recognition.
