History
ADHD Norfolk was originally a voluntary organisation founded in 2007 by Andrea Bell. She formed the organisation after seeing the lack of services available to those with ADHD in Norfolk and has personal experience of the challenges faced by those with ADHD on a daily basis.
Originally, ADD Norfolk offered small meetings in a café in Kings St, Norwich but has since to become a registered charity and grown its services to provide a range of ADHD support services.
*Please note: ADHD Norfolk was previously known as ADD Norfolk. Sorry for the confusion! The change over started on September 1st 2017 and completed January 1st 2018. This is to make it easier for people to understand what we do!
