Documentary series about ADHD
Do you or anyone in your family have ADHD?
Does it make family life stressful and is it sometimes hard to cope?
Would you be happy to talk about your experiences?
Prescriptions of Ritalin for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have quadrupled in a decade. ADHD is the most common behavioural disorder in the UK and it is estimated the condition affects 2-5% of school-aged children and young people.
‘betty tv’ is developing a sensitive and in-depth documentary raising awareness about ADHD and exploring treatments/therapies that could help.
If you would like to know more and think your family might be interested in taking part please contact Saskia on 0771 5111997 or saskia.wilson@betty.co.uk
