There has been an increased awareness of neurodivergence among adults, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), in recent times, leading to an increase in referrals to specialist practices in Ireland, as well as casual inquiries to charities and advocacy bodies in the area.

One such group is ADHD Ireland — and demand for their services has increased so much that they're in the process of opening a space and hiring staff in Cork for next year.
