Based in Scotland UK, International designer Mark Stoddart exemplifies kindness through his global advocacy for dyslexia and neurodiversity, using his own experiences to drive meaningful change.
Diagnosed as neurodiverse with dyslexia at age 13, Mark faced bullying and misunderstanding at school and in the world of work, which inspired his lifelong mission to support other neurodiverse individuals.
Best known for his bronze and silver sculptures and functional designer furniture, Mark’s impact extends far beyond the art world.
He has played a key role in establishing two pioneering schools for underprivileged neurodiverse children—one in Bali, Indonesia, and another in Kenya, Eastern Africa.
The Bali school, which he funded & advised, is eco-friendly and carbon-neutral, combining tailored education with environmental awareness.
In Kenya, his financial support & Knowledge helped launch the country’s & Eastern Africa's first dyslexic neurodiverse school, gaining recognition from the national Education Ministry.
Mark also serves as an ambassador for organisations such as Dyslexia Scotland and the Bali Dyslexia Foundation and he is a board member for a host of other global disability and neurodiverse charities.
He is also helping a Dementia Charity + homeless people.
His book Making a Mark! Discovering the Power of Neurodiversity on a Learning Safari is currently celebrating its second anniversary and shares his personal journey, encouraging young readers to embrace their strengths.
Mark's story has now been turned into a Musical.
I am a passionate advocate for neurodivergent voices in policing.
As Chair of the Police National Dyslexia Association (PNDA), I am committed to creating safer, more inclusive spaces where neurodivergent individuals feel valued supported, understood, and empowered to thrive—not merely survive.
My lived experience of navigating policing as a neurodivergent individual has shaped my dedication to challenging outdated systems, highlighting that the 'Person' should be remembered over, policy and process, promoting awareness and encouraging meaningful, lasting change.
I bring both professional focus and genuine empathy and compassion, supporting individuals as they navigate the complexities of workplace culture, discrimination, inclusion, and self-acceptance.
I lead with heart, I advocate with integrity, and I am committed to making sure no one feels they have to walk this path alone.
With 35+ years of experience across telecoms, e-commerce, advertising, finance, event management, and hygiene, I specialize in business strategy, organizational development, and transformational leadership. I've led high-performance teams of 260+ members and driven revenues up to €60 million.
Championing Neurodiversity in the Workplace
As a neurodiversity specialist, I help organizations create inclusive, high-performing workplaces. I co-founded Minds Eye Education with my wife, Anne-Marie, combining her 20 years in neurodiversity with my entrepreneurial background. We support companies in building neurodivergent-friendly cultures, enhancing accessibility, and boosting productivity.
I also co-founded The Four Pillars of Education, hosting its first Dublin conference to help companies implement neurodiversity strategies.
