Our vision is a society that works for ADHD adults of marginalised genders, where they are accepted, respected and supported. We work with and for ADHD adults of marginalised genders, at any stage of diagnosis or discovery, with a specific interest in those discovered/diagnosed after the age of 18. We hold free local peer support groups across Scotland where ADHD adults of marginalised genders, wherever they are up to in their ADHD discovery or diagnosis, can meet, learn and connect with like-minded locals for invaluable ADHD support from people who ‘just get it’.
