Removing Barriers working in conjunction with the ADHD foundation
Efforts to raise awareness of neurodiversity on the Isle of Man will, it's hoped, take to the skies in the Island's capital by TT.
The Douglas Umbrella Project has received permission from Douglas City Council to suspend 410 umbrellas over Strand Street, Duke Street and Castle Street.
The company behind the initiative, Removing Barriers, hopes it will raise awareness and educate people and institutions about difference.
It's working in conjunction with the ADHD foundation - a neurodiversity charity which uses the symbol of an umbrella.
The social enterprise company works to raise awareness of neurodiversity and support people in coming to terms with their difference.
It was founded by Ella Magee when she was based in Singapore working as a teacher.
Now, back on the Isle of Man, Ella told Manx Radio more:
If your company is interested in sponsoring the project you can email Ella directly at: removingbarriers.edu@gmail.com
Or you can find them on Instagram (@removing_barriers) or on Facebook HERE.
Removing Barriers would like to extend its thanks to Douglas City Council and Donal Cullen in particular for helping facilitate the approval for the project.
