Description
Diverse Directions is included for Derry/Londonderry families seeking Northern Ireland-aware neurodevelopmental assessment and support.
For Derry/Londonderry, local context matters: Derry/Londonderry families often need a mix of Northern Ireland-aware and online ADHD options because local private capacity outside Belfast can be thin. Families and adults should confirm whether the assessment follows NICE guidance, who completes the diagnostic review, whether medication/titration is available, and whether the report is suitable for school, university, workplace, SEND/ASN/ALN/SEN or shared-care discussions.
