Dr Carly Jones MBE | ADHD Beyond the Label

In this powerful and insightful episode of ADHD Beyond the Label, hosts Dr Phil Anderton and John Reynolds sit down with the remarkable Dr Carly Jones MBE FRSA—an internationally respected autistic advocate, policy leader, author, and advisor who has spent nearly two decades driving meaningful change for autistic people across education, healthcare, government, justice, aviation, business, and beyond.

Across this conversation, we explore:

• The intersection of ADHD and Autism and why understanding both matters

• Gendered experiences in Autism and why diagnosis is often missed in women and girls

• Safety, safeguarding, and the realities autistic people face in education, healthcare, and society

• Carly’s landmark advocacy work—from addressing the United Nations to influencing UK and international policy

• Hope, resilience, and what real inclusion should look like

With honesty, warmth, expertise, and passion, Carly offers an unmissable blend of professional insight and lived experience, inviting us to look far beyond labels and towards genuine understanding and change.
