I have worked with hundreds of organisations in the past seven years, and delivered thousands of talks on ADHD, Mental Health, Neurodiversity and Neuroinclusion.
Here’s what some of them had to say…
-
"You are exceptional - and brave and authentic and I really needed you to know that you made a massive difference to me just when I needed it. Everything you are doing spoke to me in a visceral way. It provided validation and relief on a day I really needed it. I'm writing this with tears streaming down my face but also with a fuller heart and lighter shoulders. I had to let you know that you made a difference. Thank you. "

"Thank you for your presentation today on ADHD, mental health and substance use for the Newcastle Treatment and Recovery addictions service’s medical meeting consisting of 1.5 hours teaching to a mixed group of junior and senior medical staff. Feedback was highly positive with attendees appreciating how much their knowledge had increased and pre-existing ideas were challenged. Participants were very appreciative of your informed and nuanced discussion of questions raised and thoughts on how our service can do more and be developed. Attendees highlighted your passion and enthusiasm for the topic and discussion."

"the feedback from all staff was really positive and I must say that it is one of the best outside training courses I have ever attended 😊 Tom provided us all with lots of information and brilliant ways of working with the children in our home."

"On behalf of the instructors in training, Ben and I would like to thank you for another brilliant, mind-opening talk earlier today. As always, we had a useful discussion afterwards, too!!"

"I just wanted to reiterate my appreciation for your talk. I sat and listened and quietly wished every one of my loved ones and neuro pals were there to enjoy the enlightening and evidence based discussion you had with us. Your skills as a speaker are quite something, the evidence so eloquently and comedically delivered was nothing short of a life lesson in reading a room. So, Thank You."

"Tom has been an incredible source of knowledge for our audiences here at Seed Talks. His lectures on ADHD & Autism have been extremely well received and we get great feedback about them. I also find Tom an absolute pleasure to work with!"
- William Mclean, founder of Seed Talks

"The whole day was fantastic, Tom was a real inspiration and so, so informative. The whole day was focused on seeing ADHD in a positive light, which is so refreshing to previous ADHD training I’ve done before. I have learnt so much and feel the difference it will make to my practice with one of our young people is immeasurable!"
- Holly Whalley

"It was absolutely fantastic, I am a mother of a child with ADHD and I related to everything you said. You made it funny, interesting and also quite emotional, at one point I had to wipe my eyes! I have worked in healthcare for a number of years and researched ADHD a lot, and continue to do so however I got more from your training than I ever have with anything before. It was so lovely to hear it from yourself as someone who knows and understands the struggles many people face."

“Tom is an excellent speaker, and his story resonated with me personally - such a lot of insights for those wanting to understand more about ADHD”

"I absolutely loved every minute, well, I wept through half of it because your tales of school were identical to my son's (Connor) experience, he's 24. The way you spoke made everything make sense and validated all the things I've said for years about the medical vs social models."
