Great to open the The Neurodiversity Charity ADHD Foundation conference today. We are making leaps and bounds in ending the stigma around #ADHD and, with our APPG we are holding the Government to account, pushing for real change in diagnosis and treatment. #ADHDFoundation ADHD Action

Fantastic #ADHDAwareness raising from the brilliant Rory Bremner 💙🇺🇦. We have strengths and challenges with #ADHD, support us and help us to realise our potential! Early diagnosis is critical. Well done, Rory, spot on. #ADHDAction.






Our CEO Michelle Beckett recently spoke live on BBC Sport Tyne & Wear to help spread the word on the government guidelines allowing people with neurodiverse conditions and learning disabilities to get out and about more to maintain health and well-being 🙌gov.uk/government/pub…

We’ve found: - Patients on waiting lists for up to five years after being referred. - 70% of Trusts in England with an adult ADHD service had waits of at least a year. - Charities say backlog is risking lives The Neurodiversity Charity ADHD Foundation | ADHD Action | Scott McGhee | Michelle Beckett

Thank you so much Martin Lindsay & BBC News (UK) for helping us raise awareness to the impact of these waiting times on people seeking an ADHD diagnosis We can and we will change this for the better. The stigma around #ADHD #Neurodiversity is costing lives and we need it to stop
