The NeuroDisability Network is the shared service brand for AreYou – Training and Consultancy CIC and Hudson Blake Ltd. Together, we provide specialist education, support programmes and professional training for people with learning disabilities, autism and additional needs, as well as the professionals and families who support them.
Our work focuses on helping people understand themselves, their relationships and the world around them in a safe, positive and accessible way. Important areas such as relationships, independence, wellbeing and social understanding are often overlooked when considering the needs of people with additional needs. We believe everyone has the right to this knowledge and support.
Our services are delivered through four key programmes.
CONNECT – Specialist Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)
Connect delivers specialist relationships and sex education for adults with learning disabilities and autism.
These sessions support people to understand:
• healthy relationships and boundaries
• love, attraction and sexual identity
• consent and personal safety
• emotional well-being and self-esteem
• family, friendships and professional relationships
Our sessions are adapted for different learning styles and abilities so people can build confidence, understanding and safer decision-making.
Connect also provides bespoke support for more complex situations, including:
• risk-taking behaviours
• inappropriate sexual behaviours
• self-esteem and mental health difficulties
• family or relationship challenges
• concerns such as coercion or forced marriage
This support can be provided to individuals, families or professionals supporting someone with additional needs.
ENGAGE – Alternative Education Support
Engage provides tutoring and engagement support for children who are registered with a school or homeschooling but are struggling to attend.
The aim is to help young people maintain a connection to learning while reducing pressure and rebuilding confidence.
