Welcome to Gladstone Region Autistic & Neurodivergent Network
At Gladstone Region Autistic & Neurodivergent Network, we are dedicated to supporting and empowering neurodivergent individuals in our community. We provide tailored consulting services and resources that foster understanding and inclusion. Join us in creating a supportive environment where everyone can thrive and feel valued.
Our Autistic & Neurodivergent-led Supports
Our community support services are designed to promote belonging and empowerment, ensuring that Autistic & Neurodivergent individuals can thrive authentically in a supportive environment. We are developing a range of programmes and initiatives that create opportunities for autonomous engagement and personal growth.
Resources
Neuro-affirming tools, created by and for our community.

Explore, share, and download — and let us know what you'd like to see next.
Newsletter
Stay informed, stay inspired.
Our newsletter shares community updates, Neurodivergent insights, lived experience stories, creative writing, and resource highlights. Everyone is welcome to read — and contribute! Whether you want to share a piece of writing, art, or advocacy, we’d love to hear from you.
Advocacy
COMING SOON!
Where our lived experience, academic knowledge, and professional backgrounds intersect, leading to change.
GRANN’s upcoming Advocacy Hub will spotlight the real challenges and systemic barriers faced by Autistic and Neurodivergent people — and the grassroots solutions we’re building together.
Stay tuned for campaigns, calls to action, and ways to get involved in shaping a more inclusive world.
Tailored Consulting Services
COMING SOON!
Shifting systems through lived & professional experience leadership.
GRANN offers consulting, co-design, and training to organisations, schools, and services looking to work more ethically and effectively with Autistic and Neurodivergent people.
Our team brings deep insight, community connection, and practical strategies that prioritise access, dignity, and inclusion. We centre relational safety, cultural responsiveness, and care — not compliance.
Let’s build something better, together.
Events & Community
Gentle spaces, strong connections.
Our regular events include body doubling for focused tasks and parallel play for low-demand social time.
Designed with Autistic & Neurodivergent needs in mind, these spaces are supportive, drop-in friendly, and welcoming to all.
Come as you are — cameras off or on, words optional.
Social Enterprise
Made by our Community, for our Community.
GRANN is building a small-scale, Neurodivergent-led social enterprise.
We are offering handmade goods, downloadable resources, and services created by Autistic and Neurodivergent participants.
Every purchase supports inclusive livelihoods and community care.
More information to come on this shortly!
