**No Money in the NHS for Adult ADHD!**

Sarah Templeton repeatedly heard this from NHS GPs before going private to confirm her ADHD diagnosis. This diagnosis led to discovering she also had Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, and Central Processing Disorder in her 50s. Reflecting on her past, Sarah reveals how undiagnosed ADHD and Dyscalculia impacted her education, preventing her from attending Grammar School and receiving adequate support in a Secondary State School.

Decades later, Sarah is dismayed by the lack of improvement in screening children for these conditions. Driven by her experiences, she became a specialist in neurodiversity awareness, advocating for ADHD screening in the criminal justice system. With over nine years of experience, Sarah founded ADHD Liberty, offering free ADHD screening to those in the justice system. She has authored three best-selling books on ADHD, frequently speaks on neurodiversity, and collaborates with various agencies to support neurodiverse individuals.
