Farnoosh Salmassian

We are delighted to welcome a new trustee to our board. Farnoosh is a passionate supporter of neurodivergent children and adolescents, having experience of this within her family.  She has first-hand experience of both the societal and relationship challenges that neurodivergent children and their families can face, but also the creativity and alternative perspectives they bring to the home and wider community.

She has a good appreciation of the difficulties neurodivergent children and youths face in the mainstream educational system and the social communication barriers and areas for misunderstanding that prevail throughout school and into early employment.  Farnoosh is dedicated to contributing to initiatives that help provide a better understanding for and appreciation of neurodivergent people.
