Meet The Team
We are a group of neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals who have come together to promote and champion neuroinclusion. Some of us have lived it, some of us have supported it, and all of us are here because we believe things can be better than this. Between us we bring decades of experience in advocacy, campaigning and organisational change, alongside something harder to put on a CV: an understanding of what it actually costs to spend a lifetime masking in a world that was not built for you.

Poppy Ventura
Ambassadog for Neuro Unity
Poppy is our very own Ambassadog for Neuro Unity, and a much-loved part of our Founder Lisa’s life. Gentle, loyal and full of character, Poppy brings a little warmth and softness to everything she is part of. Her role is to remind us that kindness and empathy for those of us who are neurodivergent does not always have to be grand or complicated. Sometimes it is found in patience, comfort, companionship and simply being there when someone needs you.
As our Ambassadog, Poppy represents the heart of Neuro Unity: empathy, care and connection. She reminds us that behind every screen is a real person who may be dealing with things we cannot see, and that a thoughtful word or kind response can make more difference than we realise. Poppy’s presence on the team is a gentle reminder to pause, think and choose kindness, both online and offline.
