The ADHD & Women Summit - London 2026

Research shows that in childhood, boys are diagnosed with ADHD 3-4 times more than girls. By adulthood, the ratio evens out to nearly 1:1 highlighting how girls and women with ADHD are often misdiagnosed and misunderstood in the medical framework.

With increased diagnoses and growing strains on the NHS and other support services, the ADHD & Women Summit aims to increase awareness and knowledge on the specific issues women with ADHD face.

⭐ It was amazing. It was really detailed and sensitive to the subject matter and the audience. I thought you delivered it with the perfect tone - between serious, jovial, critical and informative. -A. N.

⭐ Seed Talks is not only very educational, it's very casual and social. The talks are great for complete beginners and experts. I appreciate that they host them in bars and social spaces, so you can go alone, on a date or in large groups. - Sophie

⭐ Seed Talks have done an incredible job at making insanely cool topics easily digestible and enjoyable to learn about for one's self improvement. It's like Ted Talks, but cooler? And more accessible! - Eva W
