Do you want to help improve NHS Adult ADHD Services in Bristol, North Somerset, & South Gloucestershire?

The Bristol North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care System (BNSSG ICS) is working with Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust and Bristol Adults ADHD Support Group to improve the provision of ADHD services and assessment pathway. This involves how Primary Care can be more involved with managing ADHD patients.

We are looking for members of the public who have received an ADHD diagnosis, either through a Right to Choose Provider or paid for a private assessment themselves, to join our ADHD Service User Group. This group will contribute to the development and provide valuable insight into the proposed improvements for the ADHD pathway and future model.

A six-month membership of the Service User Group will involve attending meetings that are:

  • monthly
  • one hour long
  • held virtually on MS Teams
  • attended by Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust (AWP)
    professionals and other service users with a diagnosis who were assessed
    through AWP’s ADHD service

The roles attract a recognition fee of £18 per hour.

To express your interest, write a short statement (up to 250 words) telling them what particular experience you can bring to the project.

The full roll description and contact details are here on BNSSG’s Healthier Together site.
