Experiences of Managing Type 1 Diabetes in the Context of ADHD

Researchers at Royal Holloway, University of London would like to recruit adults (aged 18+) who:

  • have been living with type 1 diabetes for at least one year
  • have a healthcare professional diagnosis of ADHD
  • are comfortable reading and speaking English
  • are currently living in the UK.

This study aims to explore what it is like to manage ADHD and type 1 diabetes together day-to-day, what feels challenging or helpful, and how healthcare professionals can better support people managing both conditions.

The findings aim to help improve diabetes care for people living with both type 1 diabetes and ADHD.

Taking part will involve:

  • completing a short questionnaire about your background, ADHD and type 1 diabetes
  • a one-to-one interview with Lily Rudd, Lead Researcher (45–60 minutes)
  • talking about your experiences of living with type 1 diabetes and ADHD.


Interviews will take place online via Microsoft Teams, with in-person options available if online access isn’t possible.
