ADHD and the Criminal Justice System - panel discussion William Scrimshire (Communicourt Ltd), Allison Woodhead (Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust), Michelle White (Teeside University) The discussion will focus on how the impact of ADHD and misunderstanding ADHD can have substantial impacts on court outcomes - for example potentially resulting in a defendant’s evidence to be considered unreliable, which in turn can have devastating consequences for the result. This will in part talk to how ADHD affects executive functions, how people with ADHD can struggle to recall past events and/or their order, and the impact that ADHD differences can have on perceptions of others (notably juries and judges). https://adhduk.co.uk/donate/ https://www.adhd.org.nz/donate-to-adhd-nz.html https://www.payfast.co.za/donate/go/goldilocksandthebearfoundation
