Ooh, it's bloody gorgeous! Nice one :)

I'm impressed. High quality information, laid out clearly with enough space around the text to minimise mental clutter. The text itself is calm and reassuring, and the overall impression is 'we know how it is, we know the good bits and the bad bits, we've got plans that work'

Did you base the design on something, or is this just natural talent? (Utterly serious here!)

In term of technical design, that's my webmaster. I told him what pages I wanted, and he came up with the layout. In terms of the look and placement of all the text and images, and the section headings, that's me. There's lots that were joint decisions (I supplied the compass, he coloured it and placed it) but that's the basic breakdown. I looked at lots of sites on the subject, and we came up with a design that fit a criteria of minimal scrolling, clear info, and colour without overwhelming. Does that answer your question? And thanks. *blush* *cheers for fab designer*

Hi :)

I like it, it's very simple, clear - both in presentation and the text itself, and says just enough for a reader to know if they want to get in touch or attend a meeting. I presume the simplicity, and absence of links to other sites, is especially important if people with ADD/ADHD are viewing the page?

As I'd expect from you, the general tone was very "welcoming" - I particularly liked the way the site emphasises the positive aspects of the condition, and that you're offering a way of making the most of the abilities that come with it rather than merely just trying to suppress the symptoms. In fact I'd suggest you make more of the "Unearthing Hidden Treasure" page, it is rather hidden away.

Overall I really liked it, and found it interesting and easy to navigate. I will certainly point people at it if they want a quick summary of the condition.
