Very powerful video on social inequalities. Take two steps forward. New to me. If you've not seen it well worth viewing: youtu.be/4K5fbQ1-zps

Just completed ADHD UK 's first #adhd and #Autism support group with ADHD and Autism Coach Lex Harvey-Bryn. Honest and emotional conversation and sharing. Clearly important. Look forward to doing many many more and it being a significant segment of what we do as a charity.

Delighted to be on GenX Radio Suffolk just now talking about the impact, challenges and successes of #ADHD. Supporting Danny's week and the Speedway Danny Ayres Memorial Meeting Mildenhall Speedway this Sunday.

Henry Shelford just finished watching your interview with Heston Blumenthal on ADHD. So interesting and surprisingly emotional. Thanks for that. And when will other people stop hiding things 😁

This was absolutely fantastic to do. Great people and organisation. Wonderful that Chelsea is taking such a proactive lead on #adhd and #Neurodiversity. We're all working on helping people with ADHD thrive. 😀

Massive thanks to Henry Shelford of ADHD UK and the BBC’s own Ben Moore for coming on to talk about the link between TikTok and people self-diagnosing themselves with ADHD. With extremely long NHS waiting lists for a diagnosis, is it a good thing? Have a listen here:

I have never felt less like part of a "powerful lobby" in my life. ADHD exists. Life is hard. You're making it harder. #thankspanorama

#Panorama has positively benefited people with #ADHD by uncovering some poor practices. But by broadcasting in the way they have, they’ve done serious damage to our community and real harm to individuals with ADHD. adhduk.co.uk/panorama-adhd-…

Our research, from over 1,500 people, evidences that the BBC Panorama show’s presentation was misleading and harmful to people with a disability. We will be complaining to the BBC and ask as many people as possible to join in that complaint. adhduk.co.uk/panorama-adhd-…

This was a lot of fun to do. Last time I was in this room was earlier this year for the debate on #ADHD waiting times. Then only MPs could speak (although we'd done a lot of briefing to them before)- so it was particularly great to be the speaking side of the podium this time!
