Welcome to our community... How can we help?
What do we do?
DIFFERabled offer Neuro-Affirming support, information, and learning opportunities that empower, enlighten and promote neurodivergent understanding and inclusivity in society.
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.
Who are we?
We are an organisation created by parents, offering support and information to parents, carers, families and neurodivergent people.
At DIFFERabled, we understand how important it is to have personal lived experience, and so we are proud that all staff, volunteers and board members bring their own valuable and unique understanding to their role.
Our dynamic organisation was discovered in 2014 and became a constituted charity in 2017; based in North Glasgow, but stretching across all of Scotland and onwards.
Our Identity
Our new brand identity was launched in 2024 after much consultation with our board, volunteers and community. This change signified how much DIFFERabled has grown and evolved over the years, and has a strong focus on our future.
We’d like to share some information on the meaning behind our new identity and logo, because we are so proud of it:
Each colour has been carefully chosen:
Purple / Indigo is a recognised colour to symbolise both Inclusivity, and spirituality.
Gold / Yellow is identified as the colour for Neurodivergence.
Red is a nod to maintaining our original brand colour.
The face is tilted up, looking ahead to symbolise progression for our organisation and the neurodivergent community.
The circle surrounding the face represents a circle of trust, acceptance and understanding. We also love how this can symbolise being “in our own time and space” which is the Māori definition of Autism; Takiwātanga.
A shooting star symbolises the future being bright and an awakening - it is not uncommon for neurodivergent people to be in tune with their spiritual senses,
The brain being in abstract form, represents how neurodivergent people think differently when navigating the world.
Text is rounded, friendly and easy to read.
