Our Impact

The Neurodiversity Umbrella Project

Over the past five years, the ADHD Foundation Neurodiversity Charity has transformed streets and public spaces with its vibrant Neurodiversity Umbrella Project installations. These colourful displays celebrate neurodiversity, raising awareness and promoting acceptance.

In 2025, the project continues to expand, reaching even more iconic locations across the UK, Europe, and beyond. Each installation is a symbol of hope, resilience, and the incredible potential of neurodiverse individuals.
