June 22: Beyond the Headlines - the Under-16 Social Media Ban
June is OUR screen free Living for children and teens MONTH!
With growing conversations around a proposed ban on social media for under-16s, many parents are finding themselves asking familiar questions. How much screen time is too much? What role should social media play in a young person's life? And how can we help teenagers build healthy habits in an increasingly digital world?
Throughout our Screen-Free Living For Children and Teens Month, we've explored a variety of challenges designed to encourage children and teenagers to look up, switch off and reconnect with the world around them. Not because technology is inherently bad but because balance matters.
As the debate around social media continues, perhaps the most important thing we can do is move beyond the headlines and focus on what really helps young people thrive.
We will explore what this conversation means for families, and how we can support teenagers to develop a healthy relationship with technology both now and in the future.

Neuroinclusion for ManagERS

Right now, around 1 in 5 people in your team may be neurodivergent. That means they might process information differently, communicate differently, and experience your management style very differently from what you intend. Most managers are doing their best with almost no guidance on any of this. This session changes that.
In 45 focused minutes, you will get a clear, honest grounding in what neuroinclusive management actually looks like in practice. We will remove the deficit-framed thinking about "difficult" team members and discuss practical, human-centred approaches you can implement immediately.
This is not a session about diagnosing your team or becoming an overnight expert. It is about adjusting the conditions you create as a manager so that more of your people can do their best work, without having to constantly advocate for themselves to be heard.
A note on what this is not
This is not a session about spotting who is neurodivergent on your team. You do not need to know. Neuroinclusive management works by improving the conditions for everyone, so the people who need it most are not left having to ask.
