Dr Laura Powling, explained: “In 2021 we were awarded an NHS contract to support the NHS in significantly reducing their waiting times for Neurodevelopmental (Autism and ADHD) assessments in Yorkshire for children aged 0-19 which again have been impacted by Covid-19.

“This will make a significant difference to the children and young people, as well as their families.

"It’s fantastic that both the GHP and the Yorkshire Choice Awards have recognised this success and also the wider work we do within our communities in Harrogate and also Huddersfield.

“I would like to thank all of the Evolve team, as well as all of our clients for making this happen.”
