The Society for the Promotion of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Research & Knowledge (Spark) is an independent, voluntary and non-profit organisation set up in 2000.

Our story:In 1998, the ADHD Parent Support Group was set up by a parent of an ADHD child as a means of gathering and providing support for other parents going through similar pains and frustrations. The success achieved by the Support Group in fostering understanding and acceptance towards ADHD children led to the realisation that more had to be done to raise awareness of ADHD amongst educators and the general public. In response to this, Spark was formed by a number of parents from the Support Group to expand on the scope of work done previously.

Our objectives:

1. To create public awareness of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
2. To help families with ADHD children cope better with the disorder
3. To promote understanding and research on ADHD
