Social media guidance

Our Social Media Platforms

You can use our social media channels to share your thoughts on Neurodiversity.

Remember, social media is public—avoid posting anything you wouldn’t want a wide audience to see, including photos. Your posts could be visible for years.

We may remove comments that break our rules or to protect your safety.

Please note, we don’t offer direct support or advice on social media. If you mention that you or someone else is at risk, we will share this information with the appropriate support services.

We receive many requests to share project or event information but can only post those involving Different Thinkers UK or our partners.

Our Standards and Rules for Social Media

If you share anything on our social media that suggests you or someone else is at risk of harm, we will pass this information to someone who can help.

This includes mentions of:

  • Abuse

  • Self-harm

  • Feeling suicidal

  • Neglect

  • Domestic violence

We may contact you directly, or we might reach out to others, including emergency services, to keep you safe.

We will remove comments that could upset others, such as:

  • Suicidal messages

  • Comments about harming others
