Meet the Speakers: Charlie Morris

GAIN's theme for November, and our final theme month for 2023, is Rising Neurodivergent Talent. As usual, we're running events for both our individual and corporate members. For the first time, GAIN's Bea Richardson will moderate the discussion with our speakers.

In our second Meet the Speakers article for the Rising Neurodivergent Talent theme, we're delighted to introduce you to Charlie Morris.

Charlie Morris (they/them) is an autistic student at Durham University reading Chemistry. They are new to public speaking but keen to be part of the discussion about neurodivergence in the workplace and education. Their biggest interest is in transitions between workplaces and education settings, such as the change from sixth form to university. After an internship with CubeLynx as a financial analyst, they were introduced to GAIN's work and wanted to contribute their voice to discussions. Charlie has had positive experiences in negotiating both the workplace and university settings as an autistic person though knows that they are in the minority and would like to help to change this.
