Thank you
We would like to thank Morrison’s Boundary Road for letting us bag pack at the weekend. As a small charity we are reliant on being able to regularly raise funds.
The funds enable us to run activities for our families and their children and young people with ADHD
These fundraising days also enable us to get into the community to raise awareness and hopefully reduce some of the stigma surrounding ADHD.
Parent Carer Information Day
Brilliant day at St Helens Town Hall for the Parent Carer Information Day. Spoke to lots of parents and professionals. Handed out lots of our leaflets and newsletters.
Nice to see some of our lovely group members too, who popped in to see us during their lunch breaks
A big thank you to Listen4change for keeping us going with tea, coffee and pastries.

Clair was on the radio
Clair was on BBC Radio Stoke last night talking about the effects of ADHD, on the Stuart Georges’s Show… where they were discussing whether ADHD is real, after Peter Hitchens wrote in the Mail on Sunday (27/1/19] about his doubts over the conditions existence.
Having read what Peter Hitchens wrote, I have to say it’s so disheartening that so many people still feel able to write so negatively about ADHD without doing the slightest bit of research. They have no knowledge and no personal experience but feel they can very publicly deny it’s existence.
We would have let you all know sooner about Clair’s radio debut but the radio but the station only contacted Clair half an hour before they wanted her to talk. She did brilliantly and we’re really proud of her.
