What a great time we had at this years Thriving With ADHD event in October! It was magnificent to see the event so well attended, and many on the ADHD journey (one way or another), being inspired and encouraged with our panelists stories and experiences about how they are making ADHD work for them and manage it for their enjoyment and success.
Entrepreneur-Jared Donkin from 'Screen Grab', Darren & Michelle Englebrecht owners of 'Naturally Wood' and Briar Englebrecht: Otago Med Student , shared the struggles and their tips on managing ADHD with authenticity, frankness and humour! All in the room would have found something they could relate to, and be encouraged by.
A few of our amazing students from The Runway Foundation's ADDventurers Programme, shared their thoughts on what it's like to have an 'ADHD Brain', you can enjoy these also by checking out their short movie below.
Our MC Walter Neilands hosted fun games with the audience, creating much excitement as multiple participants left with a great prize to be enjoyed with their whanau. The prizes included a $150 dinner voucher to Jessica's restaurant, $150 Pukekohe Cinema Voucher & Rebel Sport Vouchers.
Finally, to wrap up the evening a magnificently delicious supper was enjoyed while guests enjoyed catching up with each other, and having further Q&A time with the panelists.
