Fund an NHS fast-track route for ADHD & autism diagnoses and treatment

Summary

We urge the Government to fund a fast-track route in the NHS for ADHD and autism diagnoses and treatment, to ensure urgent access to care, regardless of whether diagnosed privately or publicly. We believe no one should face delays, gaps in medication, or be denied essential support. We believe untreated ADHD and autism can cause lifelong harm, possibly leading to addiction, suicide, poor health, and reduced life expectancy. We are concerned NHS delays leave many without care, even after private diagnosis. Children with untreated ADHD may face higher risks of mental health issues, antisocial behaviour, and school failure. We believe a fast-track NHS system could save lives, reduce suffering, and protect the individual rights of neurodivergent people.
