Hi Gary
it would be good if we could get a celeb to come to an event even better if they actually had ADHD. I would like to start an ADHD band just off the top of my head and play at awarness events. My brothers a drummer in a band bet i could get them to play.

Perhaps we could all come together and do something for this week, whether we meet up and hold an event or do something online? Each of the support groups could undertake to do one thing for the event depending on their size and how frequently they met, with individuals contributing anything they felt they could.
For example, I would love to make a short film about ADHD (even though I have no real experience of doing this kind of thing).

Hi guys, Great ideas! btw AADD-UK will be two years old this September. Can't think about it at the mo cos I'm supposed to be on my way to the local resolution meeting re my meds, but I'll def mention it to the rest of AADD-UK. I think it would be good to have our birthday and ADHD Awareness Week together, and also a big push for the petition, as well as a big push for support groups such as Gary's! See you later--and here's to hoping I have some good news
