Support from colleagues who get it.
For 999 staff with ADHD.
A peer-led community for police, fire, ambulance and control-room staff who live and work with ADHD. Practical guidance from people who’ve been there.
Who we are
The people who understand both sides of the radio
The traits that make someone good in a crisis can make the rotas, the paperwork and the recovery hard going. A lot of people have carried that on their own for too long.
DC Daley Jones and PC Alex Ware started the Alliance in February 2022, after going through diagnosis, medication and disclosure themselves. About 2,000 people are part of it now.
How we help

A moderated space to ask anything, from medication to misconduct hearings, among people who've been there.
