What we’re about
Hey! We're Hannah (30) & Jess (32) and we've both recently been diagnosed with ADHD.
Navigating an ADHD diagnosis can be tricky, and with so many resources out there it's difficult to know where to start.
This is a monthly meetup to give adults with ADHD the opportunity to meet likeminded people in a relaxed and friendly setting. Feel free to come along and share your ADHD experiences, discuss resources & day-to-day adjustments, or even just have a drink & a natter :)
Members must have ADHD or suspect they have it. Self diagnosis is also valid - we know how gruelling the diagnosis process can be!
We will eventually be operating solely operating through the websites, please ensure to follow us so you don't miss out.

What can you expect?
Introducing our ADHD Book Club - it's a book club, but not in the sense that you know it!
There will be no selected book to read each month - instead this is a space for book-lovers with ADHD to talk about what they're reading, exchange recommendations and discuss what's next on their reading list.There will be conversation starters to frame the discussion, but let's be honest, we're ADHD so tangents are expected (and welcomed)!
When will the event be running?
Our ADHD Book Club will be taking place from 7pm until 9pm on 30th April 2024.If you can't make this particular event, we'll be holding monthly book club meets on the last Wednesday of each month.
There's no pressure to arrive at 7pm or stay until the very end - feel free to come and go as you please.
