Neurodiversity & Disability Society
We're a society aimed at students who identify themselves as neurodivergent or disabled, those who are undiagnosed or self-diagnosed, and any members of the community that wishes to learn more about neurodiversity and disability issues.
The majority of our members are active on Discord, an up-to-date link can be found in our Linktree.
We are currently hosting weekly socials Friday from 6–8pm in B34/2003, along with weekly Wednesday Coffee and Study Sessions in the Arlott (B38) from 2–4pm. We hold a variety of events such as craft nights, movie nights, board game nights, personal project nights, presentation nights and more!
We also post about our events and other updates on our Instagram page which is @nddsoc.
All of the above info is also found in our regular emails to members, and you can email us at nddsoc@soton.ac.uk with any questions.

President
- The President shall oversee the organisation and management of the Group and the Committee as a whole; ensure the officers’ accountability to Members, the Committee, and the Students’ Union; and represent the Group to all external interests.
Treasurer
- The Treasurer shall oversee the financing of the Group, set the Group's budget, and maintain the accounts of the Group. Vice-President – (we have our elected VP Iona currently but it is not currently formalised in the constitution so this would amend that.) The Vice-President supports the President in the organisation and management of the Committee and Society, with a particular responsibility for engagement, diversity, and communications.
Welfare Officer - 1
- There shall be two Welfare Officers. The Welfare Officers lead the Society’s support services. They are responsible for welfare material delivered by the Society and signpost Members in need to appropriate support services offered by the University, the Student’s Unions, and local disability and neurodiversity support services. They should also support diversity within the Society.
Events Officer
- The Events Officer is responsible for coordinating the organisation of events, and developing ideas to ensure a balance of activities that interest all Society Members. They are expected to lead the organisation of events with the support of other committee and Society Members. Special consideration should be given to ensuring events are inclusive and accessible to all Society Members. When there are incompatible accessibility needs among the society, it should be arranged that across the year there are events suitable for everyone, even if it not possible to make every event suitable for every need.
Secretary
- The Secretary shall oversee the administration of the Group and take minutes at General Meetings and Meetings of the Committee.
Technical Officer
- The Technical Officer maintains the essential computing services of the Society. Coding skills are preferable for this role.
