We have launched a survey to ask lots of neurodivergent adults from across the Scottish Borders about their experiences and what would improve their quality of life. The findings from this survey will be used to inform the grant criteria that will form the basis for the distribution of the recent £25,000 investment from the Scottish Government.

The Scottish Borders Neurodivergent Local Action Group (ND LAG) has secured £25,000 in Scottish Government funding for neurodivergent-led projects, with neurodivergent people deciding the funding criteria and processes and which projects receive support.

The deadline to apply to become a member of the ND LAG panel is 14th September

Neurodivergent people, local organisations and community partners are invited to join a first-of-its-kind initiative that aims to place neurodivergent people at the heart of local governance.
