The Central Neurodevelopmental Team covers Conwy and Denbighshire and offers comprehensive neurodevelopmental assessment leading to the production of a personal profile, outlining strengths and needs, and diagnosis, if appropriate, along with developing the service for the future to provide a variety of interventions. The service is also striving towards providing a range of interventions through group work, workshops, and bespoke individual interventions.

Applicants should also demonstrate experience in working with people with ND conditions (ASD and/or ADHD) and preferably, in working with children and families.
