​Challenges and Opportunities with ADHD in Europe

​Andrea Bilbow OBE, Vice President ADHD Europe ​
Andrea Bilbow OBE is the founder and Chief Executive National Attention Deficit Disorder Information and Support Service ADDISS the national ADHD patient advocacy group in the UK and Over the past 20 years she has been supporting families affected by ADHD, developed programmes for training teachers and now trains practitioners to deliver behaviour management programmes to parents. Through ADDISS, she holds the UK licence for the 1 2 3 Magic programme.

Andrea trains and lectures internationally, and is involved in a number of ADHD research projects including an NIHR programme development grant to develop an online parent based intervention for ADHD. She is a member of the NIHR Healthcare Cooperative, MindTech, which is seeking to improve the use of technology in mental health, and was a member of NIHR Mental Health Research Network (MHRN) Clinical Research Group for Assessment and Treatment of ADHD which concluded that identification and assessment of children and young people with ADHD was a key research priority.

Andrea has raised two sons with ADHD, one of whom also has Asperger’s syndrome, and has a diagnosis of ADHD herself. The challenges of gaining access to care within the NHS and lack of support and advice in parenting her sons led Andrea to found ADDISS to help other parents.
​
In June 2013 she was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) by Her Majesty the Queen for her work supporting families with ADHD.
