SSD Connect and Naomi Marritt, Amaze

Naomi discovered she was an Autistic ADHDer later in life, after years of wondering why everyday tasks felt difficult despite excelling in other areas.

She draws on her academic background, Master of Social Work studies, support work with the autistic community and lived experience to deliver engaging autism inclusion training that challenges assumptions and provides practical strategies. Her personal insights help bring neurodivergent experiences to life.

“You have the power to take small steps that make a big difference to inclusion for Autistic people.” – Naomi Merritt
