Neurodivergent (adult) play, Andrew Walsh (https://playbrarian.uk):

We'll use collage to gently and playfully explore some ways in which different groups of neurodivergent adults might prefer to play and talk a little about how play is often presented using neurotypical framings. The session will be informed by research by the facilitator with a range of neurodivergent adults who talked about their play preferences and experiences. Andrew is Autistic, ADHD, and often uses a Playful Learning approach with adult learners. He's also co-chair of the Playful Learning Association.
