About Us
Neurodiversity UK, Where Every Brain Matters
Neurodiversity UK is a not-for-profit organisation, established in 2013 to serve and support those living with neurological conditions.
Our Story
Neurodiversity UK (NDUK) was founded in 2013 by Ruth Magee and initially was named the Comber Autism Support Group.
North Down & Ards was identified as an area lacking in support to parents and carers, and Comber was the ideal choice for both a headquarters and shop-front.
The charity was renamed during 2014, and the team has gradually expanded to 11 volunteers, three of our volunteers are qualified to deliver Autism Movement Therapy and training.
We have created an open, supportive environment for all who come to the charity.
