Co-Founder, Differing Minds CIC · Neurodiversity Speaker & Facilitator
Jess Meredith is a neurodivergent parent carer who co-founded Differing Minds, a social enterprise built to change how workplaces and schools are designed around neuroinclusion, not to sell a diagnosis.
Jess is a dynamic speaker and facilitator whose pioneering work with Differing Minds CIC has helped organisations including Accenture, the NHS, Deloitte, Goldman Sachs, and Allen and Overy implement neuroinclusion strategies. Through programmes like NeuroConfused to NeuroConfident, NeuroBursts, and NeuroNavigator, she challenges organisations to treat differences as strengths rather than barriers to work around.
She is herself an adult-identified neurodivergent and a parent carer, raising her family with a neuroaffirmative approach, and she brings that lived experience into every room she works in, from corporate leadership teams to school classrooms.
Jess co-founded Differing Minds with Steve Pope as a Community Interest Company rather than a standard for-profit business, a deliberate choice to keep the mission of neuroinclusion at the center of the work. Her thesis, echoed across her keynotes and her newsletter The Differing Advantage, is that inclusion comes from redesigning systems and environments, not fixing the person.

Jess helps employers and schools build neuroinclusive environments through keynotes and structured training programmes like NeuroConfused to NeuroConfident, NeuroBursts, and NeuroNavigator, covering topics such as neuroinclusive people management, masking and burnout, and inclusive hiring. She is herself a neurodivergent parent carer and a leading advocate for neuroinclusion and self-advocacy.
