Welcome Parents & Carers

You are here: ADHD Foundation - Parents & Carers

Are you a parent or carer of a child with ADHD?

Families can be isolated and stigmatised and we provide an opportunity for parents to learn about and understand ADHD.

Parents are empowered and progress from beneficiaries to service providers, becoming involved in the design and delivery of services and thereby reaching new families.

We have a range of accredited and non-accredited learning packages for parents. Service users progress to become volunteers and, on occasions, may progress to become stafff, using their knowledge, skills and experience to deliver a quality service.

In the parents and carers section you will find:

• our Information, Advice and Guidance Service
• our Skills Building Group
• Alfie's Letter - a young person shares his experience of ADHD.

Carers and Wellbeing programmes
We also have programmes around wellbeing for parents. An informal group where parents can come together and discuss their children and also receive holistic therapies, information about nutrition and health and information from other agencies about benefits and other support available.
