Neuroinclusive consultancy for businesses and organisations committed to helping every customer and colleague thrive.
Meet Ruth Bartlett, Wordsted Founder.
Hi, I’m Ruth, a communications and usability expert specialising in neuroinclusive consultancy for SMEs and third sector organisations.
I help organisations declutter their user journey and create space for empathy and engagement with customers, service users and staff.
Why work with me?
My background in international diplomacy and intercultural education, my flair for copywriting and editing and my lived experience of neurodivergence, have given me the tools to deliver practical solutions that will make your communications, processes and customer journeys accessible for everyone.
I work with SMEs and larger organisations in the health, housing, financial, social and tech sectors to increase engagement and tackle the communication bottlenecks among your frustrated users and staff that are costing you time and money.
My approach is:
I’ve lived through the everyday frustrations that are alienating your customers, service users and staff.
Using jargon-free plain English and neuroinclusive service design and accommodations.
I don’t just advise – I bring empathy, experience and expertise to a hands-on, practical partnership.
Honest insights and unfiltered feedback on your communications or processes, with practical tips and actionable advice for change.
Clearer comms, a one-off audit, ongoing support, or bespoke training – whatever you need I’ll work around you – in-person, online, or over the phone.
Working with you to make neuroinclusion a living part of your organisation for lasting change.
Helping you understand and make the most of different cognitive profiles at work.
In short
- EXPLORE MY SERVICES
Together, we can embed authentic neuroinclusion based on meaningful action – reaching far beyond regulatory box-ticking and making real connections with everyone your organisation touches. That cultural shift you’ve been striving for is within reach.
I believe the benefit of considering atypical brains in service design far outweighs the investment.
Let’s work on the upgrade together.

FAQs
Awareness is knowledge of neurodiversity. Neuroinclusion is the proactive design of workplaces, policies, services, products, processes and systems to include all neurotypes.
Yes. Neurodivergence is a disability and is protected under the Equality Act 2010. For detailed guidance you can consult the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s Code of Practice.
Neurodivergent staff are the canary in the coalmine. The barriers they face are likely to be faced by other members of staff at varying times of life, during periods of stress or personal difficulty for example.
No one’s operating system is bug-free 100% of the time, By supporting neurodivergent staff you have the opportunity to pre-emptively address problems before they begin to affect the workforce as a whole.
By creating a neuroinclusive environment you will attract neurodivergent talent, reduce staff turnover and foster innovation and creativity by reaping the rewards of divergent thinking.
A neuroinclusive design means you consider sensory, cognitive and communication differences in your customer journey – removing friction, increasing satisfaction and making services accessible to more people.
While compliance (e.g. under the Equality Act) is necessary, neuroinclusion is a strategic asset: it helps you leverage diverse thinking, improve adaptability, reduce risk associated with exclusion and build more resilient processes that support both internal and external stakeholders.
