βOur intersectionality is what makes us incredible, and we will not be contained or defined by a single label.β
OUTSIDE THE BOXβ¦
Dear Beautiful Black Women & Non-Binary Babes,
We want you to know we see you, we understand you, and we are here to empower you. It's time to break free from the limitations imposed upon us in doctors' offices, schools, and the workplace.
Every day, we face the pressure to fit into the predefined categories that the world wants to place us in. Whether it's by conforming to societal expectations or ticking endless boxes on forms that categorise us as 'female, black, disabled, gay, straight etc.' We're tired of being confined to these boxes!
Our intersectionality is what makes us incredible, and we will not be contained or defined by a single label. That is why, to coincide with our 3 year anniversary, we are running the βOutside the Boxβ campaign throughout the month of October to raise awareness for ADHD, empower our community, and raise money for our services so we can continue to support you.

Our Blog
Our group was born out of necessity due to the lack of support and resources in Adult ADHD services, especially when considering the marginalisation of groups and the lack of representation for Black Women and Non-Binary people.

ADHD Babes: The Podcast
Every two weeks, we'll invite you to a new episode hosted by members of ADHD babes. Join them to share in their experiences of living with ADHD as a black woman or non binary person.
Listen while they interview special guests who will inspire them with knowledge and tools to help, both them and you, manage their ADHD.
Walk with them in their journey of learning about our wonderful brains and all the things that come with living in a world where you have to manage multiple intersectionality's.
ADHD babes is an open space for anyone who's looking for support with ADHD.
