ADDing Support

Adding Support is a Basildon, Essex based voluntary group and a registered charity that gives advice and support to the parents and carers of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) and co-morbid conditions.

 Primarily the group was set up for children who displayed ADD/ADHD behaviour but, as parents we feel that as our children are getting older their conditions are changing. They are displaying traits that fall into the co-morbid categories rather than solely the ADHD. We understand though that this is not the case for all families.

ADHD/ADD is a condition whereby the child in unable to “put the brakes” on inappropriate behaviour, cannot maintain their concentration on anything for very long, has problems fitting in with their peers, and can be very hyperactive!

We are all parents whose children have various conditions and we understand the many situations that you may find yourself in. We can give advice on issues regarding behavioural management, educational problems, and many more.

Feel free to attend one of our meetings to find out more, details of our meetings are on the next page,  and you can find out more about the group and the committee on the About Us page.

Thank you for your time and interest in our group.
