A podcast from Amelia Platton for all those in law and professional services who don’t quite fit in. Each week on the podcast they talk to a different diverse thinker about their experience.
Tune in to get tips, insights, and ideas as they explore difficult topics such as neurodiversity and mental health in work, university, and employment processes.
In this episode, they speak with Natasha Hirst, a co-researcher on The University of Cardiff and Law Society’s ‘Legally disabled?’ research, which was one of the first explorations into the ” experiences of disabled people and people with health conditions (including mental health) working in the legal profession”.
Natasha is a Neurodiversity advocate, Vice President of the National Journalist Society, Writer, Trade Union Representative, and Photographer who is deaf and has ADHD and Dyspraxia. Natasha’s personal experience, the research and why it came about, its legacy, and what more needs to be done are all discussed in this episode.
