Each October Newnham College hosts a lively forum where everyone can explore complex topics related to family and learn from experts in specific fields (as well as from each other).

This year's Family Forum on 8 October 2022 was on the theme of ‘Girls on the spectrum – navigating a neurotypical world and celebrating neurodiversity’. Autism campaigner Carly Jones MBE FRSA, Julie Bailey (NC 1990), and Steph Curtis, writer of the blog Steph’s Two Girls, came to Newnham to discuss these modern challenges.
