Your local ADHD assessment options in Brighton
Brighton has an unusually engaged neurodivergent community, and adults here are more likely than most to seek assessment on their own initiative rather than waiting to be referred. What they run into is supply: the standard NHS pathway commonly involves waits of two to six years, and NHS Right to Choose, though sometimes faster, was subject to Integrated Care Board funding limits across England during 2025-2026 that capped or paused new bookings in a number of areas. Private assessment is the route that matches the intent.

Who decides NHS funding in Brighton
NHS ADHD assessment for Brighton is commissioned by NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB, formed on 1 April 2026 from NHS Sussex ICB and NHS Surrey Heartlands ICB — so guidance written before then names a body that no longer exists. Whether NHS Right to Choose is open, capped or paused here is its decision, not a clinic's, and it can change at short notice. How Right to Choose works →
