Yesterday, our founder Sarah Warley joined Tom Swarbrick on LBC to discuss ADHD, employment and whether people with ADHD are being too quickly written off as unable to work.

Sarah was clear from the outset: ā€œADHD is a very real condition. It’s a neurodevelopmental condition. It’s there from birth, and we’re basically asking someone who’s fundamentally wired differently to function in a neurotypical world.ā€

For some people, those differences can significantly affect their ability to cope in a conventional workplace. But Sarah argued that the question shouldn’t simply be ā€œCan this person work?ā€ Instead, we should be asking:

ā€œWhat’s stopping them from working, and what would actually help them to function better?ā€

That might mean relatively simple workplace adjustments: clearer written instructions, better-defined priorities and deadlines, flexibility around working hours, consistency in where someone works, or focusing more on productivity than time spent sitting at a desk.

Sarah also highlighted why there can’t be a one-size-fits-all approach to ADHD. Two people with the same diagnosis may experience very different challenges and need very different forms of support.

And importantly, neurodivergent thinking can bring enormous value to organisations, including lateral thinking, big-picture ideas and perspectives that others may not see.

The answer isn’t to dismiss the very real difficulties some people experience. Nor is it to assume that a diagnosis automatically determines what somebody can or cannot do.

It’s to understand the individual, identify the barriers and create environments in which more people have the opportunity to thrive.

Thank you to Tom Swarbrick and LBC for an important and nuanced conversation.

ADHD is real. My position on that has never changed.

I took part in The Great ADHD Myth because I believe we need to ask deeper questions about what may be contributing to an individual’s symptoms, not because I believe ADHD doesn’t exist. I want to make my position absolutely clear.

Let’s discuss ADHD Myths Here’s what we believe are the true myths surrounding ADHD:

Myth 1) That ADHD is not real - of course it is, which is why we work hard to help address the many challenges it brings.

Myth 2) That diet and lifestyle are enough to address it - a good start, and all we could do in the documentary, but seldom enough. A serious condition requires serious support

Myth 3) That medication is the only effective option - not so. Our specialised programs tackle underlying biochemical imbalances to help restore calm, focus and balance, without medications.

When families think about ADHD support, it's easy to assume the answer lies in specialist interventions alone. But while professional assessment is incredibly important, there are also simple habits that can help create the best possible environment for a child's developing brain.

Our founder, neurophysiological psychologist Sarah Warley, encourages families to focus on four key foundations:

🌿 Nutrition – Aim for balanced meals, plenty of fruit and vegetables, a protein-rich breakfast and fewer ultra-processed foods to help support steady energy and concentration.

šŸƒ Movement – Whether it's cycling, climbing, dancing or simply playing outside, regular physical activity can support attention, self-control and emotional wellbeing.

ā˜€ļø Time outdoors – Free play, fresh air and nature give children opportunities to build confidence, solve problems and develop important social skills, while providing a break from screens.

šŸ’™ Sleep and routine – Consistent bedtimes, regular mealtimes and morning daylight can all help support healthy body clocks and overall brain function.

None of these are magic cures, and they won't replace professional assessment or treatment where it's needed. But getting the foundations right can make a meaningful difference and benefits every child, not just those with ADHD.

This summer is the perfect opportunity to slow down, reset routines and build habits that support children's health, learning and wellbeing.

ā˜€ļø Summer holidays can be a welcome break from school, but for many neurodivergent children, changes in routine can also bring new challenges.

A little structure can go a long way. Here are a few ideas that many families find helpful:

🌿 Keep some predictable routines, even if the days are more relaxed.
šŸ’š Build in quiet time after busy activities.
😓 Try to keep sleep and wake times fairly consistent.
šŸŽØ Focus on your child's strengths, interests and confidence, not just keeping up academically.
šŸ¤ Remember that behaviour is often a form of communication, especially when a child is feeling overwhelmed.

Every child is different, and what works for one family may not work for another. Sometimes, small adjustments can make the holidays feel calmer and more enjoyable for everyone.
