🚨 New Interim Review: Mental Health, ADHD & Autism in the UK

The latest independent review highlights a complex picture:
✔️ Rising mental health challenges, especially among young people
✔️ Significant increases in ADHD and autism diagnoses and demand for services
✔️ Ongoing gaps in support, long waiting times, and inequalities in access

But this isn’t just about statistics; it’s about real people not getting the support they need early enough.

We’ve created a summary to help you understand what’s happening, what it means, and what could change next.

Over the last few days, the First Response Training team has been OUT and ABOUT smashing those step counts! 👣💥
☀️ Leanne has been making the most of the sunshine — even treating herself to a well-earned pit stop for some refreshments (hydration is key, obviously! 🥤😄).
🌳 Nicole has been enjoying some lovely after-work park trips with her son Fin, soaking up the sunshine and sneaking in those bonus steps!
💖 Nicki has been racking up the steps with some very busy days including a special day out with her beautiful granddaughter Bella (steps + memories = win-win!).
🌊🥪 Nicki & Becky also squeezed in a scenic river walk on their lunch break… because why sit down when you can step it out? 😂
And Nicki didn’t stop there — she wrapped up her day with an evening walk with her son! apparently moving a little too fast according to the sign! 🚶‍♀️💨⚠️
🌅 Amy has been enjoying peaceful evening river walks, getting those final steps in - the perfect way to unwind after a long day in the office. ✨
🏙️ 🚇 Perry has been hitting the ground running around the London Underground — turning every platform, staircase, and “mind the gap” moment into extra steps! 👣🚊

🔥 And today’s grand total: 132,346🔥

🎉 As you know, we’ve already SMASHED our 80K step goal (no big deal 😎)… so naturally, we’ve decided to aim even higher — 1 MILLION STEPS! 💪👣

Tomorrow is World Autism Day and the final day of the challenge and we have 73,492 steps to clock up tomorrow to hit our new goal 🚶‍♀️
We’ve upped the challenge, and we’re not slowing down anytime soon — watch this space! 🚀

💖 You can still donate and support us as we push towards that massive 1 million step goal — every bit of encouragement helps!

Big news for the adult social care sector 👇

The government has rolled over funding for training into 2026/27, meaning support is still available for providers investing in their workforce.

💷 There is up to £11.98 million available this year
🎓 It’s specifically to support completion of the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism
🏥 It applies to CQC-registered adult social care providers in England

This funding isn’t automatic, it can only be claimed by organisations that are actively completing the training.

✔️ You must complete the full training (including eLearning + Tier 2)
✔️ You can claim funding after the training is completed and paid for
✔️ There’s a £25,000 cap per organisation for this training (separate from other training funding)
✔️ Claims are first come, first served

If you’re planning to roll out Oliver McGowan Training, the funding is there, but you need to claim it.

🌟 Today’s Step's Update – 💚 🌟

The First Response training team had a very special guest today… 🚶‍♀️✨
Isla, who is the daughter of our Neurodivergent Training Lead, Becky, joined us as our official “mini step champion” for the challenge! 👏💥

With glorious sunshine overhead ☀️, Bec took Isla out on a lunchtime adventure through the stunning gardens at our sister venture, The Angel Inn, Pershore 🌿🌸

And what a perfect setting! 😍
Beautiful scenery, fresh air, and even a hidden gem 💎 — a lovely little swing seat that added some extra fun to their step-count mission 🎉

Today’s walk was even more meaningful 💚
Isla is currently on her own journey through the diagnostic pathway for combined ADHD and autism. Her amazing contribution today is a reminder of why we’re taking on this challenge raising awareness, showing support, and getting everyone involved 🙌

She absolutely smashed it 👟💪

Proving that every step counts, no matter your age especially during half term! 🌈✨

Another fantastic team effort all round 👏🔥

Bringing us to a brilliant total of 111,020 steps today! 🏆🚶‍♂️

Let’s keep stepping, supporting, and spreading awareness
