Unlocking the Potential of ADHD Support: How Parents Plus Can Enhance Your Service

We have a few remaining places left on our ADHD Programme Training starting on the 18th of April.

Our PP-ADHD training is for frontline professionals and can help prevent serious secondary problems, such as self-harm and substance misuse, from affecting children with ADHD as they grow older.

This programme utilises a solution-focused approach with facilitators introducing and exploring topics and parents’ problem-solving solutions as a group.

The PP-ADHD programme was developed with the understanding that early intervention from specially trained professionals can help parents manage the challenges children with ADHD can face, reducing the likelihood of serious secondary problems developing as the child gets older.

The PP-ADHD programme is for parents of children aged 6-12 who are suspected, awaiting, or who have received a diagnosis of ADHD.
