“I had the great fortune to have worked with Donna Carty over a three-year period whilst at Shakespeare's Globe and beyond. Donna developed a programme of truly inspiring, thought provoking and also challenging training for colleagues at all levels of the organisation and also assisted with policy development and strategic consultancy. I could not recommend Donna more highly to any organisation who are serious and intentional about developing and then implementing their approaches to achieving a more inclusive workplace."
Esther Joseph
Team Manager Autism
"Priscilla spoke at our #LondonVirtualAutisticConference2 - over 1200 people signed up for the event and the feedback on Priscilla's presentation has been outstanding. We have since been recommending schools to view Priscilla's presentation as she gave some very practical ideas as to how school staff can better support Neurodivergent young people in their care. I would definitely recommend Priscilla and would like to hire her again to speak directly to our school staff and colleges. She is relatable, knowledgeable and a good public speaker"

There was some constructive consideration, all of which was handled with great care and respect but ultimately I have come away feeling empowered to make the changes we discussed".
