Going to a Large-Scale Swimming Event as a Neurodivergent Woman? Read This First
Large-scale swimming events can be incredible. The water. The sense of achievement. The collective buzz of people doing something brave and a bit wild together.
And… they can also feel a lot.
If you’re a neurodivergent woman, you might already be thinking:
What if it’s too noisy or chaotic?
What if I feel overwhelmed or shut down?
What if I don’t know where to go or who to talk to?
What if I feel awkward, shy, or on the outside?
Zoe Carroll and a team of neurodivergent women from the Activate YOU programme will be on hand to support you every step of the way. Here are 5 ways you can prepare for the event.
