Creating Fairer Workplaces for Neurodivergent PeopleNeurodivergent people across Dumfries & Galloway have told us what really helps them thrive at work — and employers have shared what support they need too.
With new funding through the Social Enterprise Grant, we’re now turning this learning into action: creating tools, training and partnerships that make workplaces kinder and more inclusive. |
Plans for our new StrategyWe have developed a new draft strategy for 2026–2029, co-produced by our Board and staff and shaped by what our clients and communities told us they need most.
It sets out our priorities for supporting community organisations, strengthening lived experience leadership, championing fairer workplaces, and helping build systems rooted in equity and participation. |
Our EvaluationOur latest evaluation showed 100% satisfaction with our work, powerful evidence of our impact, and clear direction on what people need from us next.
From stronger leadership and more sustainable organisations to renewed staff confidence, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and deeply valued. |
Creative engagement tipsAt Sleeping Giants, we often engage with the public to find out their views on an issue on a client’s behalf, whether it’s our evaluation work or helping community organisations develop Place Plans.
Creative approaches make it easier for people to share their views. By offering different ways to take part, we improve accessibility and create space for neurodivergent people and those with disabilities to contribute in ways that work for them. |
