DANDA - the Developmental Adult Neuro-Diversity Association has been set up for people with Dyspraxia, Asperger's Syndrome, AD(H)D and other related conditions such as dyslexia and dyscalculia. It is run by adults with one or more of these conditions.
The aims of DANDA are as follows:
- To help adults with developmental dyspraxia, ADHD, Asperger's syndrome and related conditions reach their full potential by providing and improving emotional and practical support, particularly for those conditions for which there has been less provision - such as dyspraxia.
- To raise awareness and understanding of these conditions in adulthood, particularly their assessment, their effects, their treatment and the inter-relationship between the different conditions.
- To establish networks of groups to help adults with these conditions get involved in activities for interaction, mutual support, and education, provided that the activities shall be charitable.
