On 27th August, the Scottish ADHD Coalition hosted a dedicated online session to discuss Channel 4’s programme, the realities behind ADHD, and to help collate and articulate our response which was sent to Ofcom and Channel 4 at the end of last week. This is a recording of that session.
The Scottish ADHD Coalition wishes to express an official complaint about the recent documentary aired on Channel 4, ‘The ADHD Myth’.
Recent media coverage around ADHD has sparked a lot of noise, plenty of opinion, and a whole lot of misinformation. We are having a meeting to discuss this and the realities behind ADHD.

The Scottish ADHD Coalition is aware of the concerns being raised regarding Channel 4s forthcoming documentary on ADHD and is currently reserving judgement until the programme has been broadcast.
