In this eye-opening episode, counsellor and CBT therapist Sarah
Templeton reveals why she believes the true rate of ADHD in UK
prisons is far higher than current estimates. With years of
experience in the prison system, Sarah created the first ADHD
screening checklist for detainees, helping make the City of
London Police the first to screen for ADHD.


Joining Sarah and Ben is an ex-offender with over 500
convictions, who shares how undiagnosed ADHD fuelled his cycle of
re-offending. This conversation sheds light on the
often-overlooked link between neurodivergence and the criminal
justice system.
