Understanding ADHD Together – Parent & Carer Workshop

This presentation from Hat Full of Bees introduces parents and carers to neurodiversity and ADHD.

Join us for a relaxed session about ADHD, executive functioning, and neurodiversity.

We are hearing a lot in the media at the moment about ADHD and people’s perceptions of what it is and whether it is overdiagnosed, but there is nothing about what it is, what is happening and what to do about it.

This session seeks to dispel common misconceptions, clarifying that ADHD is a complex neurological difference rather than a simple behavioural issue. It blends personal lived experience with insights to help parents and carers better understand and support neurodivergent individuals.

The presentation is structured around several key themes:

• An introduction to ADHD
• Debunking ADHD Myths
• Overview of Neurodiversity/Neurodivergence
• Dopamine
• The role of Executive Functioning and the Brain
• The Importance of Diagnosis and Strategy & what can come first
• Positives and Strengths
• Q&A
• Way forward

Vicky brings both professional expertise as an ADHD Coach & Mentor, a Youth & Community Development worker, and her own lived experience of being late-diagnosed with ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, and Dysgraphia.
