Eating with ADHD and autism: expert-led workshop

So Nutrition is bringing its workshop on eating with ADHD and autism to The Barrows on Wednesday 18 November, from 9am to 12.30pm. It's part of a new series of workshops they're rolling out across the UK, run in a safe, judgement-free space for neurodivergent adults, parents, carers and practitioners. The morning is led by Sarah Osborne, an award-winning nutritionist, ADHD coach, author and TEDx speaker who founded So Nutrition, and registered nutritional therapist Natasha Rosenberg, who specialises in neurodiversity.

Osborne's work includes the Strong-A programme for autistic children and young people with food difficulties, and the session covers neurodivergent eating patterns and practical strategies. There's a mindfulness session led by local expert Christine Bell of Harrogate Mindfulness, a smoothie break, and a charity raffle to close the morning. The event supports Autism Angels, a North Yorkshire charity founded in 2012 by Sarah Kekoa that helps neurodivergent children and families through outdoor, animal-based therapy and learning, and the session includes a talk from them.

Everyone who attends gets a goody bag, which includes Osborne's 100 ADHD-friendly Recipes and a £50 voucher for any of So Nutrition's testing kits. The workshop runs from 9am to 12.30pm at The Barrows, Weetons, Leeds Road, Harrogate, and tickets are £30.
