Our mission

Our mission is to provide quality & cost effective diagnostic assessments and validation for adults who have been struggling with the symptoms of undiagnosed ADHD and Autism. We are committed to serving our stakeholders - neurodivergent adults whose life trajectories and relationships have been adversely affected by neurological difference. Our responsibility is to offer professional, informed, and caring support. As a neurodivergent-led organization, we are uniquely positioned to understand and address the challenges faced by our clients, dedicating ourselves to identifying and diagnosing those who have experienced the same difficulties that we have.

Attributes Designed to Harness Difference is a celebration of the unique ways neurodivergent minds interact with the world. ADHD isn’t just a set of challenges—it’s a collection of strengths that enable creativity, adaptability, and innovation.

Rather than conforming to traditional expectations, those with ADHD often think beyond boundaries, problem-solve intuitively, and embrace dynamic energy that drives passion and discovery. They thrive in environments that encourage fluid thinking, imaginative solutions, and the ability to pivot effortlessly in the face of change.

Harnessing difference means recognising the value of diverse perspectives—the ability to see connections others might miss, to navigate complexity with instinct, and to experience emotions deeply and meaningfully. ADHD is not a limitation; it is a force of nature that fuels resilience, enthusiasm, and a visionary outlook on life.

By embracing these attributes, those with ADHD can turn challenges into opportunities, harness their strengths with intention, and shape the world in extraordinary ways.

Attributes Designed to Harness Insight

Attributes Designed to Harness Insight celebrates the remarkable ways autistic minds perceive and interact with the world. Autism is not a limitation—it is a unique and powerful way of processing information, experiencing emotions, and engaging deeply with knowledge and creativity.

Autistic individuals often see patterns others miss, approach problems with innovative logic, and bring an intense focus to their interests and passions. They thrive in environments that encourage depth, precision, and authenticity, cultivating a perspective that enriches both their own experiences and the world around them.

Harnessing insight means recognizing the beauty of thinking differently—the ability to understand complex systems, connect deeply with personal interests, and hold a perspective that values honesty, structure, and clarity. Autistic minds challenge conventions, expanding the boundaries of knowledge, creativity, and human connection.

ADHD and Autism

Indeed. We are a tribe. I include myself as an ADHDer & Autist. I have a lifetime of chaos and survival to show for it. Don't misunderstand me, I don't see any of this as a problem, far from it. LIke all ADHDer individuals I have tremendous insight into what that means, and more importantly how to take a positive and life affirming position to make the best of the gifts that being neurodivergent bestows. These gifts allow us to contribute significantly to many areas requiring problem solving and/or creativity.

You'll find us in a wide range of roles in the community - from healthcare, art, design, building, architecture, acting, singing and all forms of engineering - civil, mechanical, chemical, electrical and software. We're your game designers and your friends who talk too much and have weird interests. We're one of those very odd academics who haunted the halls at Uni, and we're the tragic 'died too young' famous faces who showed us their unbridled brilliance and through self medication, depression and anxiety died far too young, often before they were 30. (think the 27 club)

You'll find us on the front line of the demonstration, trying to right an injustice or rescuing abandoned animals or failing at the latest course we've attempted, because we can't get the work started, let alone handed in. That and the latest relationship has also just come to grief, or we've just been fired from our job - again, and we've never felt so abandoned, and it feels like its all our fault. Right? Does this sound like a familiar story?

If this is you. You've come to the right place.

​This is your tribe.

Welcome home.

Welcome to the tribe!

Album: How Were We To Know

Released: 2023

I got a ticket to nowhere, I'm hoping it takes me somewhere I belong
My pockets are empty, look, sorry, I spent it, so no, I can't offer you gold
But I got a heart full of diamonds, I can't stop them shining
There's no blending in with the crowd
I got a heart big as ocean, respect and devotion
I'm gonna shout it out loud

I'll let my true colours show
Know they ain't perfect, but true colours glow
And oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful you are
When you let your true colours show

God's sense of humour's a little peculiar
But you gotta laugh to survive
And sometimes it's hard to be who you are
When love really isn't so blind
Remember, there's no one quite like you
Who shines quite like you do
Baby, you're a piece of art
So don't let them bite you
Do what excites you
And make sure you sing from your heart

Just go let your true colours show
Know they ain't perfect, but true colours glow
And oh look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful you are
When you let your true colours show, yeah



Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em, yeah
Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em, yeah
Glow, baby, glow, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em, yeah
Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em

Go let your true colours show
Know they ain't perfect, but true colours glow
And oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful you are
When let your true colours glow

Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em
Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em

Just go let your true colours show
Know they ain't perfect, but true colours glow
And oh look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful you are
When you let your true colours show, yeah

Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em, yeah
Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em, yeah
Glow, baby, glow, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em, yeah
Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em

Go let your true colours show
Know they ain't perfect, but true colours glow
And oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful
Oh, look how beautiful you are
When let your true colours glow

Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em
Glow, baby, glow
Go, baby, go get 'em
