ADHD Support Groups

Launceston ADHD Support Group Meeting stated on Wednesday 9th February. The format this year will be a little different with two separate groups – 1 for parents of children with ADHD and another for adults with ADHD.

The meeting will alternate between 10 am and 7 pm, so there is an opportunity to attend either a morning or evening session each month, depending on what suits you. The group will aim to have a theme each week which will focus on after an initial introduction and chat. 

The following meetings will be held at the Windsor Precinct in the room adjacent to the oval. 

• 10 am-11 am – 23rd Feb – Adults with ADHD session
• 7 pm – 8 pm – 23rd Feb – Parents session  
• 10 am-11 am – 9th Mar – Parents session
• 7 pm – 8 pm – 9th Mar – Adults with ADHD session 
• 10 am-11 am – 23rd Mar – Adults with ADHD session
• 7 pm – 8 pm – 23rd Mar – Parents session 

As this is an inside space please ensure you bring a mask, hand sanitiser will be provided.  Please do not attend if you have any covid symptoms or for any reason should be isolating.  Check-in will also be required.
