How to ask your employer to fund your ADHD Coaching and support

‍

Get Your ADHD Support Paid For By Your Employer

While people who have ADHD may not consider themselves to be "disabled", ADHD is classed as a disability under the Equality Act 2010. That means that employers are required to make reasonable adjustments or reasonable accommodations to help you do your job. This can mean anything from simply recognising that you need more time than others to complete tasks that your colleagues can complete quickly, giving you more breaks in return for coming in a little earlier or leaving a little later, through to giving you brighter lighting and better computer equipment.  

‍

ADHD Support courses, coaching and training can also be paid for by your employer as the skills and tools we teach can have an immeasurable impact on your ability to do your job. Taking advantage of the services helps you manage your time, focus on what's important, and play to your best attributes.
