Our Story

SEDSConnective was founded by Jane Green MBE.    Jane was told she was “dim” and a hyponchondriac, often missing in school.  At 16 she only two qualifications at age 16.   She knew she was different but there was no science or understanding in those decades. She brought up her 2 children as a single parent but her eldest, who had trauma at birth, was early diagnosed with ADHD, autism dyspraxia and mild learning disability plus many health issues. Her youngest also had severe eczema and both had food allergies. Jane knew she was different but there was no science or knowledge for it . She decided to help teachers teach children like her own, not only to stop her children being continuously excluded but knew there would be others. The rest of her story is under Founder. 

​

In 2018, Jane launched SEDSConnective in Sussex, UK. She started it as a voluntary charity without any funding or connections, driven solely by her passion to make a difference and improve outcomes to survive and be believed in her local area.  It grew. 

​

Today, we are a global charity with many volunteers, advisers and a world renowed Patron researcher, Dr Eccles.  We have thousands of members worldwide. We remain committed to Jane's original vision, fostering a sense of community where individuals support one another. Whenever possible, we also collaborate with other charities and allied professionals to enhance our impact.​​​
