The ADHD organization's services are available to all Icelanders, with over four thousand members actively involved. Membership extends to the entire family, as ADHD often affects multiple family members. It is estimated that up to 25,000 people in Iceland have ADHD—10,000 children and 15,000 adults. Many of these individuals have not received an appropriate diagnosis or the resources that could greatly enhance their lives and significantly reduce various social costs, such as school dropouts, substance abuse, bullying, disability, and health issues.

The ADHD Association provides its members, the general public, public institutions, and professionals with a variety of free services, including advice, educational materials, and information. We also offer impactful courses, educational meetings, and publishing activities. With your support, we can strengthen and expand our efforts even further, benefiting everyone affected by ADHD.

Íslandsbanki's Reykjavik Marathon takes place in August, and as customary, thousands of participants will run for good causes, collecting pledges for various organizations. The funds raised by runners in the Reykjavik Marathon are one of the most important sources of funding each year, and for the ADHD organization, the event is crucial for our operations. Last year, over 100 people ran with Team ADHD, collectively raising over 1,000,000 ISK for our cause!

This year, we hope to do even better. As before, the ADHD Association's supporters will run under the banners of #teamadhd, #takkadhd, and #snillings. We welcome every new participant and emphasize that you don't have to run a long distance to take part. Anyone running 3 km, 5 km, 10 km, 21 km, or a full marathon can join and collect pledges. The whole family can join Team ADHD!

Those who run for the ADHD organization will receive a fantastic ADHD T-shirt or a Pop it - push up of their choice as a token of our gratitude. Once you have signed up for Team ADHD at hlaupastyrkur.is, you can email us at [email protected] to choose your thank-you gift.
