Inspired Equine Assisted Learning CIC is a not4for4profit company limited by guarantee. Registration no: 9803457 Equine Assisted Learning: Family Relationships and ADHD 94% of parents are concerned ADHD will threaten their child's academic success. 70% of parents state their child has been excluded from social activities because of his or her behaviour due to ADHD. The UK Key Survey results – ADHD Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common disorders of childhood and adolescence and is characterised by symptoms of impulsivity and hyperactivity and/or inattention. ADHD can have a significant impact on the lives of both the person with the disorder and their family. “The estimated prevalence of all ADHD is around 5% of school4aged children.” National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) Guidance. 5% of school4aged children in the UK equals 500,000 children! Further statistics from The UK Key Survey results – ADHD, include the impacts on the family: ! 94% of parents often feel stressed or worried by their child's ADHD. ! 89% of parents think that family activities are disrupted by their child's behavioural problem. ! 95% of parents report early mornings and 90% report evenings to be difficult or very difficult for coping with their child's ADHD symptoms. Have you heard about Equine Assisted Learning (EAL): A unique learning experience with amazing benefits? Inspired Equine Assisted Learning CIC facilitate programs that are wonderful for helping children and teens establish themselves as calm, confident and assertive young people. Horses understand instinctively how to differentiate between potentially threatening behaviour and a calm and assertive nature, and so those affected by ADHD who have the chance to participate in EAL sessions are able to learn how to successfully understand and modify their behaviour through a series of interactive exercises and sensory experiences that cannot be delivered in a classroom. The sessions are available to all family members to help them to support one another as they learn to manage the effects of ADHD. This is important because children with ADHD need a lot of attention and may need to be managed differently to other children in the family and this can cause resentment and jealousy on the part of the other children who don't have ADHD. EAL does not involve riding and no prior experience with horses is required. Did you know there is a local EAL Centre with programs specifically designed to help families cope with the impacts of ADHD? For more information or to arrange an informal visit to the Centre to discuss your needs, please: Telephone Mike Burrow on 07729 909186, email [email protected] or see our website inspired4eal.co.uk
