I'm hosting a webinar in 2 weeks 📣
For those who missed it last year, I'm doing a re-run of my webinar about the impact of trauma on Autistic people's communication and relationships. This is aimed at #Autistic people and parents/carers.

In response to Joe Wicks saying #ADHD is caused by ultra-processed foods: Joe is a force for so much good but on this he's abjectly wrong. His point that a good diet can help almost everyone is right. But diet good, bad, or ugly won't make you have ADHD or make you not have ADHD.
I enjoyed taking part in this study and look forward to hopefully it being published or further research that it generates
A summary of the research carried out by our fantastic PhD student @SophieM_Harris, we miss you in the office Sophie!

Today @NHSEngland have announced a taskforce on #ADHD to 'develop a national ADHD data improvement plan'. This is a big deal and we're celebrating it. We have a hope we didn't have and it is wonderful.
