Ethos
DIFFERabled offer services, wellbeing therapies and learning opportunities that empower, enlighten and promote neurodivergent understanding and inclusivity in society, while challenging the status quo and striving to do better.
We aim to empower and equip our community with the ability to self advocate and improve the wellbeing of themselves and their loved ones.
Our caring, informative and supportive organisation has a wonderful network of parents, carers and neurodivergent people of all ages, with or without a formal diagnosis.
Culture
DIFFERabled is founded, directed and staffed by those with lived experience of neurodivergence.
Our dynamic organisation was discovered in 2014 by parents that wanted better for their children. We became a constituted charity in 2017; based in North Glasgow, but stretching across all of Scotland and onwards.
Brand
As DIFFERabled has grown and evolved over the years, we felt it important to define what we have become and develop our future, and with this, a new logo and brand identity was created in 2024.
A face looks forward and upward to symbolise looking ahead and moving onward.
The circle around the face represents being “in our own time and space” which is the Māori definition of Autism; Takiwātanga.
The brain is in abstract form, to represent how neurodivergent people think differently when navigating the world.
The text is rounded and friendly.
Purple / Indigo is a recognised colour to symbolise Inclusivity, plus a spiritual representation.
Gold / Yellow is identified as the colour for Neurodivergence.
Red is a nod to maintaining our original brand colour.
