adhdawarenessmonth.orgThis ADHD Awareness Month, we’re highlighting our resources that help raise awareness and provide valuable insights for individuals, families and educators affected by Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
This year’s theme, “A Community of Support”, is all about coming together – sharing accurate information, lived experience and practical strategies so that nobody has to navigate ADHD alone. It reflects a wider vision: a world where understanding ADHD leads to connection, support and real opportunities to thrive, with access to that support at every stage of life. The SENDcast is proud to be part of that community.

LISTEN TO OUR LATEST ADHD PODCAST
Hyperfocus: From Survival to Superpower with Emma Muir
Our podcast host Dale was recently joined by Emma Muir, a social media marketer and education communication strategist who was diagnosed with ADHD at 45. Emma and Dale talk honestly about late diagnosis, why so many adults are offered antidepressants or HRT before an ADHD assessment, and whether “superpower” is the right word for neurodivergence. As Emma puts it, the answer depends almost entirely on context – and that’s exactly why a community of support matters.
