Proud to be a part of this amazing campaign for The King's Trust

Our mission to Change a Girl’s Life continues - and we’re so proud to introduce our Young Ambassadors, the inspiring faces of the campaign 💖

Meet Sharifa from London, Usher from Portsmouth, Cybele from Glasgow, Georgia from London, Shauna from Leeds and Jodie from Slough (not pictured) - six incredible young women showing what’s possible when passion, confidence, and opportunity come together ✨

Each of them has their own story, but they all share one goal: to inspire other young women to believe in themselves and build the futures they deserve.

Through free courses, grants, and mentorship, The King’s Trust is helping young women across the UK gain the skills and support they need to thrive. Head to the link in the comments to learn how you can help us Change a Girl’s Life.

Book Corner Thursday

A Different Kind of Normal

Author & Illustrator: Abigail Balfe

International Cat Day

We have tied in A Spotlight on ADHD week with today being international cat day! We have seen a lot of ADHD children mask as animals, mostly cats or have a very keen affiliation with cats, just as Abigail does in A Different Kind of Normal.
We believe it is really important for children to be able to express themselves via these personas and can often give us clues as to what they feel is missing to them (for more information on this, read yesterdays post on attention). Persona of a baby can often represent missing blocks when growing up or a big change in their lives (siblings, house moves etc) and pets can often show the need for attention like you would cuddle a pet.
This can be used to an advantage for trying new foods “a cat would eat chicken” and to go off exploring “walkies”. Connect with your pet making animal beds, drawing the animals together and asking them what they look like in their animal form.
This can also be a way of masking or coping when situations are too overwhelming.
Equally support their way of representing themselves.

In March 2025, I became a Young Ambassador with , with the aim of shining a light on the support available for young people aged 11–30. Sharing my own story of childhood adversity and time in foster care has shown me, and hopefully others, that our past does not have to define our future.

Recently, I was honoured to be nominated for The King’s Trust Young Change Maker and Breakthrough awards by Lizzie Stringer! Reading the testimonials shared by colleagues, families, my partner and my sister Natasha Pheney has left me humbled and grateful for the community we’ve built through Lighthouse Therapy Hub.

What began as a solo vision in 2023 is now a team of therapists offering creative therapies, mindfulness, and family support. Whatever the outcome of these awards, my first goal, to make a difference for even one family—has already been achieved.

What is Connecting the Dots on Behaviour from Bobbie’s SEND Support?
Here is a one stop shop for behaviour analysis. What our child’s actions are trying to communicate. This is compiled from a sensory review, school observations, a basic needs check in to then create a personalised plan of regulation support. Further checks on self-esteem, traits of ADHD or Autism can be added to the report if required.

The YouTube video can be found here: https://youtu.be/3kk6QcDXsiQ?si=xp4A2GRGT-RWjfgo

We have mini case studies coming soon which will give more detail to how custom support looks and adapted to your child’s interest, learning and communication styles.

What is Bobbie’s SEND Support?
I take my training in SEN Law, Sensory feedback, ADHD, Autism, and PDA to create a unique service helping SEND families navigate the unwritten rules and lack of guidelines. Exploring the legal responsibilities of school and the steps they should be taking to support our children.

I can support the full EHCP process, from evidence for a Needs Assessment, reviewing drafts and supporting appeals.

What is Family Support?
Our sessions are a time for you to off load, ask questions, and get help and support to help the challenges in your family. Normally a video call, the session is yours – ask away.
The sessions aim to reduce feeling of isolation, thoughts that you are going crazy, and know that you are not alone with facing these behaviours.

Sometimes it’s a space to explore different thoughts, options and ideas, some it is just a reassurance that you are doing everything right!

Bobbie likes all things colour! Her love for being outdoors, taking photos of nature, being about the journey, not worrying the destination.
Keeping herself fit for her future self, knowing how much the movement aids regulation.
She can often be found with a pen in her hand, creating something, making notes, and normally sipping a coffee!

Following on from yesterdays post some further ideas on how I support my ADHD. Use of colour extends from the way I work, organise things to the way I dress. I find I can have a few key items which can then be brought to life with some chunky colourful jewellery, a seasonal bag (a lot of them home made), some glittery make up, and of course some funky socks. As a visual processor I find tracking socks and caring for them much easier in the laundry to storage cycle matching colours and patterns.
I have lots of bags (see above!), I have collected a mass of trolley tokens so I have one saved on each bag. Each bag also has a shopping bag inside too so I am not caught out without a bag (mostly!). My spare keys are kept in my gym bag, with a fob so I can wear them on my wrist if I need to be hands free, my gym pass, a trolley/locker token so each activity is contained and I don’t lose my keys.
Anchoring floating tasks, a good example is remembering to take my supplements/medication. By taking them with an actimel or similar it extends the processing needed for the task, puts it into the rhythm of my day and gives me an extra visual to remember to take them when I open the fridge. The actimel is flavoured so seen as treat over a demand. All of these actions combined mean I know to take them and don’t forget if I have had them or not.

Living and working with ADHD can be really challenging. Most days, really crippling. Feeling like others are able to ‘just do’. Whether it is making appointments, remembering to go to appointments (which creates its own vicious loop), trying to remember all the things your children need or ‘simply’ removing the clothes from the washing machine.
Over the years I have started to make changes, leaning into my learning style, exploring what works for me. Use of colour is really important for me, as well as hand writing information. I struggle with electronic calendars, they have no flow, shape, no way of reinforcing the message to my brain that an appointment is booked. I use electronic lists if I need to remember something out and about.

Bobbie’s Journey to SEND Support
From a young age I craved approval and attention from others, always chatting away whilst trying to navigate a very complex world of friendships.
Always feeling the odd one out, never quite getting the memo.
I found university life quite easy, I had an interest in what I was being taught, I could picture real world examples withing industry whilst learning overall service business management, which I still offer today. The customers are just hungry for information, not food. Unless it’s biscuits, we all love biscuits!
I continued to work across West Yorkshire after graduating and settling in Wakefield. I had my two children and everything I thought I knew – I didn’t. Even reading the one and only parenting book I ever picked up (and taking excessive notes!) I quickly realised, or assumed, this author had never had a child. There was no way she would respond to timed feeds or to be left alone.
Both of my children are diagnosed Autistic, one with ADHD (the other with traits), we navigate overwhelm, anxiety, panic, avoidance and miss communication on a daily basis, but over the years the tool box has grown, repaired and now fairly sturdy.
I work very closely with support organisations across Wakefield understanding what problems the families are facing.
I use and have developed lots of different resources for children and adults across the years to meet different learning and communication needs. It is this adaptability that brings that extra sparkle to Bobbie’s SEND Support!
