With community at the heart of Tees Valley Buddies, it allows for a comfortable and enjoyable environment whatever your neurotype. Neurodivergent people, specifically, have the opportunity to develop skills in an adaptable and inclusive space designed to meet the needs surrounding neurodivergence. We encourage and support Authenticity in volunteers and staff members as much as we do our service users.
