Workshops are split by age (Year 5-8 and Year 9+),  and are designed to help children and young people better understand their ADHD, develop confidence, and connect with peers who share similar experiences.

Young people attending will be of a similar age; 11-13 or 14-17
​Boost takes place at the same time each week for 1 hour.   


What young people say about Boost: 
"Boost really helped me, I learnt why I even get these feelings and how to cope with them."   

"At first I was scared to go to Boost, but the people here are really nice.  It's alright to be nervous, but once I started the group I didn't want to stop going"

 In 'three' words:
                   "it 'Boosts' you"       "helpful, fun, safe"     "helpful, relatable, supportive"       "amazing, fun, cool"
