    Gill Of All Trades! With Gillian Charlton!
    Jun 26 2026
    I've called this episode Gill Of All Trades because Gill is someone, who like me and many other ADHD people, has many strings to her bow and it's something I feel we should celebrate more! I was first introduced to Gill through my gorgeous mate Laura on a facetime, if I recall correctly, last New Years Eve. She was bouncing around in her pyjamas singing and I was immediately drawn to her energy. Gill is a naturally funny person, which is something I love but there is also so much more to her...Gill Charlton is a former British Army soldier, comedian, celebrant, speaker and full‑time Northern chatterbox. She was diagnosed with combined‑type ADHD at 38 while still serving, during treatment for PTSD and following a cancer diagnosis in 2018.After 24 years in the Army, PTSD and a long medical discharge process led Gill to leave service in 2023, throwing her sense of identity into chaos. She coped the only way an ADHD brain knows how — by doing everything. Gill immersed herself in recovery programmes based around adaptive sport, saying yes to sailing, snowboarding, climbing, axe throwing and pretty much anything else offered. She was also selected for the Invictus Games and took a stand‑up comedy course, which led to her becoming co‑founder and director of the Veterans Comedy Club CIC.After leaving the Army, Gill retrained and worked full‑time as a celebrant, building a business rooted in connection, humour and authenticity — a role she still continues alongside her work. A year ago, she moved into a full‑time Events Executive role in the charity sector, supporting military‑connected communities. Through podcasts like ADHD AF, Gill found the ADHD community she’d been searching for and now runs the Manchester peer support group for the ADHD AF+ charity. She’s also a mum to two AuDHD sons, an event host and speaker, and someone who gets involved in almost everything.Gill's celebrant website: www.gillcharlton.co.uk Veterans Comedy Club website: Veterans Comedy Club | Armed Forces ComedySign up for email reminders to the Manchester Peer Support Groups — ADHDAF+ CharityMy merch has finally been released!

  • Nowt As Queer As Folk! With Heidi Mavir!

    Nowt As Queer As Folk! With Heidi Mavir!
    Jun 19 2026

    In this episode, I'm joined by the wonderful Heidi Mavir for a conversation that was originally meant to focus on the brilliant work she does through EOTAS Matters and The Marble Run.

    That was the plan, anyway.

    In true ADHD fashion, we took a wonderfully unexpected detour and found ourselves talking about queerness instead - which honestly could not be more perfect, given that this episode is being released during Pride Month!

    Fret not! I shall definitely endeavour to get Heidi back on the podcast again in the future because she really does do such awesome work for the neurodivergent community and she's brilliant to chat with!

  • What A (Neuro)Shambles! With Mark Allen

    What A (Neuro)Shambles! With Mark Allen
    Jun 12 2026

    Mark Allen is the creator and host of Neuroshambles, the podcast that explores the realities of raising neurodivergent children with honesty, humour, and lived experience. Mark is a dad of three neurodivergent children, a writer, neurodiversity advocate, public speaker, and former stand-up comedian, and he describes himself as an undiagnosed neurotypical navigating family life as best he can. In this episode, we talk about how his parenting style has changed since learning more about neurodivergence, the story of a very unconventional wedding, and Mark’s impressive neurotypical superpower: being able to just use any cutlery in the drawer!
