Andreia has created an incredible, vibrant community. A safe space where I can share my thoughts, fears, feelings in a non-judgemental environment, knowing that all I will see is empathy and understanding. She has used her natural positive affinity for good to help bring others together to collectively process the complexities of being or caring for neurodivergent individuals. The podcast and social presence are wonderful for those who wish to consume in this way, and I have found the coffee mornings to be a breathe of fresh air, lightening my mental load, and giving me comfort and something to enjoy each month. I look forward to catching up with everyone, know that their advice is sage, and come away feeling so happy each and every time.

The coffee mornings are beneficial in a number of ways. You are able to share your stories and lived experiences with others who have an understanding of what you are talking about. Having access to advice from me external agencies is a very helpful as you sometimes find out about support and/or services you are not aware of. In general the coffee morning provides a support network across the board.
