Co-designing Nature-based Interventions For children with ADHD Study (CONIFAS)

We know that children and young people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are highly creative and dynamic and sometimes experience excessive activity and energy and struggle with their attention and behaviour. Developing skills to help support these difficulties can be helpful for education, relationships, and general mental wellbeing. It can sometimes take a long time to access this support which might impact upon the difficulties children and young people with ADHD experience. Engaging with nature has been shown to have a positive impact on the things children and young people with ADHD may struggle with.
Dr Peter Coventry and Dr Hannah Armitt co-lead the CONIFAS project.
