Reena Anand

Reena Anand is an AuDHD UK-based social entrepreneur, consultant and coach specialising in neurodiversity, race and culture. She works with organisations across education, corporate, charity and public sectors to create neuro-affirming, culturally responsive environments for autistic and otherwise neurodivergent people.
Drawing on her background as a former lawyer and ombudsman, Reena combines personal experience with evidence-based practice. She is a South Asian mother of two neurodivergent children and has navigated the SEND and education systems first-hand, bringing deep insight into how policy, culture and power shape access to support.
Through her company, Being Inclusive, Reena designs and delivers talks, training and advisory projects focused on inclusive systems, psychologically safe workplaces and sustainable change rather than one-off awareness days. She is a postgraduate-trained neurodiversity coach and a Professional Associate at the Centre for Race, Education and Decoloniality at Leeds Beckett University.
Reena regularly speaks at conferences, on podcasts and in the media about intersectional autistic experiences, strengths-based narratives and the need to embed neuroinclusion by design. Her work centres dignity, agency and the expertise of autistic people themselves.
