The Hidden 20% is a UK-registered charity, podcast and movement rewriting the future for every mind
Founded by autistic/ADHD entrepreneur Ben Branson, we find and share the truth about neurodiversity - catching society up and breaking the cycle of silence, shame and suffering.
Through research, stories and science we share the truth - making the hidden visible.
Each week, we speak with leading experts and lived experience voices to uncover the true scale and potential of neurodiversity - challenging myths, stereotypes and outdated systems.
While others talk awareness, we demand recognition, representation and reform.
Every month, more than 100,000 people turn to The Hidden 20% to learn, connect and feel seen. With your support, we can reach further, grow louder and keep amplifying the truth.
Great minds think differently.
