Who we are
The ADHD Collective is a vibrant UK-based online suite of support, resources, coaching and community for adults with ADHD.
We welcome individuals at any stage of their ADHD journey—diagnosed, undiagnosed, or simply relating to the traits.
Originating from ADHD Unlocked in 2020 and evolving into a Social Enterprise in 2022, we support, connect, and educate our members while reinvesting the majority of our profits into providing free coaching and memberships for those in need.
Members enjoy 24/7 access to peer support, engaging in discussions, seeking advice, and sharing experiences in a judgment-free zone.
Our unique offerings include chat rooms, focus rooms, online co-working spaces, and a private social platform for uninterrupted connection.
Our personal growth challenges and comprehensive resource library offer tools for focus, well-being, and productivity enhancement, alongside a deep dive into ADHD understanding through videos, webinars, and group coaching.
Experience live, interactive sessions such as group coaching, webinars, self-care sessions, accountability meetings, and expert Q&As through our diverse Zoom meet-ups, designed to promote connection, learning, and personal growth, complete with reminders for all activities.

Diagnosed in 2017 at the age of 44 after a suicidal crisis, she then became an advocate for reducing stigma and widening understanding of ADHD through the charity she founded, before turning her many years experience as a business and mindset coach, mentor and trainer to support others with the condition.
She is ILM certified, a member of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council, and certified in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) via the International Association of Therapists. She is also studying for an MSc in Psychology. As well as working with individuals and businesses, she also train charities, psychiatrists, GPs, teachers, and social workers on ADHD.

Lucy is a qualified ADHD Coach. Before she began ADHD Coaching, she worked in the third sector where she trained young people in schools and employees in businesses for 15 years, specialising in anti-prejudice, ED&I training and education programmes. After ADHD became part of her life through family diagnoses in 2012, Lucy has dedicated herself to solid research, training, industry engagement, advocacy and hands-on practice with neurodiverse children and adults.
Lucy’s 20+ year career in communications, education and the third sector meant she has worked in close partnership with many interesting people, from government ministers to headteachers, primary age children to life-term prisoners in high security prisons. Lucy’s ability to work with people from all walks of life, of all ages and neuro-types across many industries is often remarked upon an asset to her coaching.
Lucy‘s current clients include scientists, teachers, psychoanalysts, dancers and stay at home parents. Lucy’s favourite aspect of the job is helping clients improve their quality of life, discover their goals and develop a real understanding of their own unique ADHD brain.
