I am of course well aware that waiting times for ADHD assessment have increased dramatically.

I found a set of unsent forms from mid 2022 (classic ADHD) with a letter which ended “Please note that due to a high demand for ADHD assessment appointments, there is currently a waiting list  between 4-8 weeks from the point your questionnaires are returned.”

When I was referred to the NHS in late 2023 the message was “Please note that at present there is approximately a 24-30 month wait for this”

Wait, does the nav block sit on the footer for this theme? That’s bold.
