This week, Sam and Katie unpack the landmark government report on ADHD services in England and what it reveals about the system’s failures, costs, and opportunities for change.
They’re joined by Professor Anita Thapar, one of the UK’s leading experts in child and adolescent psychiatry and Chair of the Independent ADHD Taskforce. Together they explore why ADHD can no longer be treated as a niche condition, how underdiagnosis has left thousands without support, and what needs to happen next to fix it.
From early intervention and education reform to tackling the £17 billion cost of neglect, this conversation lays out a hopeful roadmap for what proper ADHD care could look like and why it’s time for action, not waiting lists.
