Neal Mankey – Chair at ADHD UK – Coach in Training

Neal is Chair at ADHD UK and also Director for the Health and Social Impact Practice at Veredus, an executive search company where he works with the NHS and Third sector clients in appointing their executive and non-executive teams.

He was diagnosed with ADHD in early 2020 which helped answer a lot of questions about certain traits, behaviours, feelings and emotions and has helped him work with his ADHD as opposed to against it. Neal is currently a ‘coach in training’ and is taking a coaching diploma with Optimus Coach Academy that focusses on psychology and neuroscience by helping individuals fulfil their true potential. He is also a Mental Health First Aider.

In his role as Chair at ADHD UK Neal has played a key part in helping the charity raise its profile within the corporate world as well as key partnerships we are forming within the NHS and its newly formed ADHD Taskforce. He has conducted talks on ADHD to the likes of Deloitte, Capita, Lloyds, Natwest Banking Group, Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, The Ministry of Defence and The Healthcare Peoples Management Association.

As part of his course Neal needs to have completed a number of coaching hours and is offering pro-bono sessions, however donations to ADHD UK are also very welcome.
