Today we are publishing our Open Letter to Haringey Council about the use of bailiffs in our borough.
Organisations across our community have signed. @Haringeycouncil it’s time to listen to your community and stop using bailiffs.
This conference is like my third child. You'd think they'd pop out easier now, but this one is MASSIVE! Please share, come along, drop in to the livestream and show some love for this all-autistic lineup <3 #ActuallyAutistic
Next Thursday 11th July!
Here's the final flyer for the conference at Walker Cricket Ground and online via livestream from 9.45 - 17.15. We hope you can attend for the whole day, or just pop in for a session or two! Full schedule and FREE tickets here: https://t.co/aZoLv2lZzo
Around 800,000 people in the UK could wait over a year for an ADHD assessment.
In some areas, patients can wait up to 5 years.
No one should have to spend hundreds in a private clinic just to be diagnosed and access the medication they need.
The NHS needs proper funding, now.
There was a lot of emphasis on ruling out other mental health conditions rather than considering comorbidity, and no mention of ADHD being misdiagnosed as 'just' anxiety and depression.
So many things annoyed me about the #panorama programme on #ADHD .
"Thousands of people have ADHD"... Massive understatement, how about 3-4% of all adults according to @adhduk ?
I was annoyed by the talk of "powerful stimulants" - man was prescribed a starter dose of extended release Concerta. Obvs important to assess risk factors, and I am concerned about overworked clinicians not checking that: could give someone a heart attack!
I just signed the petition calling on @ofcom to make sure their rules are able to hold ALL news channels to account - and properly enforce them on GB News . Will you sign too?

Two weeks ago I finally realised that the rounded mirrors in tube stations are so you can see round the corner if someone is about to walk right into you. My life is changed. Now to get other people to use them! Is a public awareness campaign on the way @TfL ?
Do you identify as neurodivergent and want to be involved in co-production of our research, which is about societal inclusion for neurodivergent people?
We are looking for 7 neurodivergent people (aged 18 or over) to join our advisory group.
