ADHD New Year Celebration
On Saturday, February 24, 2024, we successfully hosted our "ADHD New Year Celebration" event in Kwun Tong, delivering a day filled with joy and support for all participants.
This event was specifically designed for adults suspected or diagnosed with ADHD, as well as parents or caregivers of children with ADHD. Our goal was to create a relaxed and enjoyable environment where attendees could engage in meaningful interactions, learn from one another, and offer mutual support.
The event began at 2:30 PM and lasted until 9:00 PM. During the session for parents and caregivers, Dr. Dennis Cheung shared insights on ADHD medication treatment, its effectiveness, and usage precautions, followed by a group discussion that allowed attendees to interact directly with the doctor. From 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM, the event was open to all, featuring karaoke and games that helped foster friendships among participants. The evening session from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, dedicated to adults with ADHD, included a mindfulness workshop led by Ms. Daphne Leung to help alleviate stress, and a Q&A session with certified ADHD coach Ms. Amanda Fok, addressing common issues faced by adults with ADHD.
The event was held at Room 4A, Yung Tak Commercial Building, 181 Wai Yip Street, Kwun Tong. The response was overwhelming, with all available slots quickly filled. Participants expressed high satisfaction, noting that the event was incredibly beneficial and that they felt a strong sense of community support as they welcomed the new year.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Dennis Cheung, Ms. Daphne Leung, and Ms. Amanda Fok for their professional contributions, as well as to all participants for their enthusiastic involvement and interactions. The "ADHD New Year Celebration" not only provided a platform for learning and exchange but also demonstrated that through collective effort and support, we can create a more understanding and inclusive community.
Looking ahead, we are committed to organizing more events like this, ensuring that more individuals can experience this supportive and loving atmosphere. We eagerly anticipate our next gathering and look forward to working together towards a brighter future!
