@Simone_Biles I support children and families with ADHD. I've met so many girls who look up to you as their role model. They'll love you even more now. You are an inspiration on and off the gymnastics floor.
Introducing, Bert, the Happy Tally. He gets a quick 'tap' on the head when I'm having a happy or positive thought or if I get a great email, a smile on Zoom, a compliment or if I've achieved something great. What do you do to recognise the positive aspects of your day?!
Having a deep understanding of how ADHD affects your loved one is imperative. A visit to the cinema was a struggle and we’d leave before the film had even started.
We learned that this sort of environment wasn’t right for him so chose other activities and had a much happier boy.
International best selling #Kent author Adrian Webster @polarbearpirate joins us after 3pm today @BBCRadioKent
His new book Tiny Noticeable Things is aimed at businesses, but explains how we can all make a lasting impression on the people we meet.

@ADHDSheppey has been busy over the last few months. We’ve taught our first cohort of Mini ADHD peer mentors, updated our ADHD Awesome psycho education programme and have been working with local schools. We’ve had a busy year so far!
Using the Life Wheel with our ADHD Peer Mentors has been a great success. ADHD Sheppey is still going strong and has been working hard, through Covid, supporting families with the challenges they’ve been facing. We’re nine years strong and have great plans for 2021!
Watching young people evolve and become empowered by their ADHD is a joy to behold! Today we focussed on the benefits of a positive growth mindset. One of the cohort (11) quoted Mandela. She views failure as an opportunity to grow. She is going to be a fantastic Peer Mentor!
Tomorrow is the start of our brand new ADHD Awesome Peer Mentor Programme! Our first cohort will be a group of girls - all diagnosed with ADHD. They will be learning strategies on how to support, not only themselves, but their peers with ADHD. #MINIADHDCOACHES
