In 2023, I was diagnosed with ADHD at 48. This was a turning point for me, I wanted to create a safe space for others like me, after realising how much our community needed greater support understanding and resources around this.

I've always been passionate about creating a space where neurodivergent people can connect, feel understood, and support one another. Leading the Congleton community has been a privilege, and my goal is to help people find their tribe, build confidence, and embrace who they are.
