This week Rachel and Lucy are joined by Robson Dodd, Senior Researcher at Youthscape’s Centre for Research. Together they dive into the UK Government’s independent review into mental health conditions, ADHD and autism - and what this might mean for us working with young people. The trio then reprioritise Organised Fun in which one of the team manages to slip in the extravagant use of the word ‘Ecuadorian’.
