Neuroinclusion as a movement

Driven by lived experience and co-creation

At SPARK, we believe that change starts with people, real people with real stories and experiences. That’s why we put co-creation and lived experience at the heart of everything we do.

Whether you’re looking to create a workplace that truly gets neurodiversity, connect with others who see the world as you do, or simply learn how to be a better ally, we’re here to spark the conversation and the change.

Your experience. Your community. Your Spark!

Connect with a community that understands you, supports your journey, and values your unique perspective.

Neuroinclusion isn’t just a workplace initiative; it’s a movement for lasting societal change driven by the power of lived experience.

SPARK helps empower neurodivergent individuals and organisations to drive this change.

Upcoming Protest: ADHD Medication Equality

Belfast City Hall 11.30am – 1.30pm 28 June 2025. This is a peaceful protest to raise awareness about the recent increased withdrawal of Shared Care prescribing arrangements for ADHD medication in Northern Ireland.

The change disproportionately affects neurodivergent individuals and families who, due to long NHS waiting lists, have had no choice but to pursue private diagnosis and treatment.

Now, they are being told they must also bear the full financial cost of essential medication, something that would otherwise be available on the NHS. This just can’t go on!

"What we need is an organisation amplifying neurodivergent voices, sharing stories, and driving advocacy forward, from a Northern Ireland perspective."

Powered by lived Experience

If you’ve ever been in a conversation with several ADHDers, in the same room, at the same time, you’ll know that we often share information through stories. Way more than usual. Sharing our experiences like this adds depth and meaning to EVERYTHING. 

Our pathways to diagnosis, are some of the most profound, transformative, and unforgettable lived experiences you’ll ever hear. But if we listen to them, the true meaning of why inclusion must be embraced becomes clear.
