Help improve A&E services for autistic, ADHD or AuDHD adults Researchers at City St George's, University of London are looking for autistic, ADHD or AuDHD adults (18 ) from across the UK to complete our anonymous survey. They want to hear from anyone who has ever needed emergency medical care or been a patient at A&E. No formal diagnosis of neurodivergence is needed: self-identification is valid. The survey takes approximately 15-20 minutes. Accessible alternatives to the online survey are also available via this link: edsurvey.link/

I’ve had some feedback that it was not clear if non-neurodivergent people are needed for our survey. Not only are you needed, you’re the group lacking the most. Hopefully this video makes it clearer. EDSurvey.link

Excited to be presenting in a session about #PersonCentredCare at #UKIO2026 next week! I’ll be talking about my PhD project. I’ll focus on what radiographers should know and how they can make a difference. See you in Liverpool! #Radiography #Neurodivergent #Autism #ADHD

What shapes your decision to seek emergency care, and what was it like when you did? Our national survey wants to hear from you. All neurotypes welcome, no formal diagnosis needed. 👉 EDSurvey.link #NHS #Neurodivergent #Autistic #ADHD #AutRes #emergency #autismresearch

Emergency department care doesn’t work the same for everyone. We need your experience in our national #UK survey to understand why. Use your voice to help us improve. Link: EDSurvey.link #NHS #Neurodivergent #ADHD #Autistic #AutRes #autism #emergency #trauma

ASMIRT 2026 has been amazing and an awful lot to take in. 4 days, 3 talks, 3 social events, an interview and a podcast. The highlight was always going to be the people. Meeting so many new inspirational radiographers and finally meeting faces I'd only known online.

What a stunning location for #ASMIRT2026. I’m incredibly excited to listen to and connect with so many brilliant people in the radiography field. I’m presenting each day so it’ll be a busy but hugely fulfilling conference. I’m once again extremely grateful for the invitation!

A 'world leading autism expert' who does not engage in contemporary research, & spouts poorly informed opinions about aspects of research she's either not bothered ever to read, or wilfully excludes If only Frith were so critical about her own work, or better yet retired.
Important intervention by world-leading autism expert Uta Frith that allows us to talk about this difficult issue and what it means for supporting pupils in school.

Thank you Professor Tamsin Ford- Chair of Psychiatry @Cambridge_Uni who, with a team of 32 experts state that there is no evidence ADHD is being over diagnosed. Calling out ‘Alarmist rhetoric’ by politicians. cam.ac.uk/research/news/no-e… @DHSCgovuk @ION_Diversity @ADHDUKcharity
