Who are S.P.A.C.E. Stockport?
Stockport Parents of ADHD Children in Education (S.P.A.C.E. for short) is a registered children’s charity which supports families who have children with ADHD. There is no charge for parents or carers to attend our monthly meet ups, join our private online community or attend guest presentations.
There is a lot of misinformation about ADHD, which can be confusing, especially for those with a recent diagnosis. Our monthly meetings are an opportunity to talk to other parents who face the same challenges in a relaxed and informal way. |

Having ADHD isn’t a bad thing, but it can bring challenges. Parenting children with ADHD can be tricky and hard at times, but with the right support, having ADHD can be amazing.
At one time ADHD was considered to be something that only affected male children, which we now know to be untrue. Unfortunately the stereotype of unruly little boys continues to affect the diagnosis of little girls and adults of both sexes, particularly those without obvious hyperactivity. |
