THIS June, the Torch Theatre welcomes ADHD coach, speaker and former Wright Stuff presenter Hester Grainger to the stage with her powerful and uplifting show, ADHD: Unmasked.

Expect an evening of open conversation, laughter, and refreshingly honest insights into life with ADHD. In a supportive and inclusive space, Hester invites everyone—whether living with ADHD, supporting someone who is, or simply curious—to share stories, connect, and feel seen.

A well-known voice in the neurodivergent community, Hester is a regular podcast guest and media contributor. Her appearance on ADHD Chatter with Alex Partridge went viral, with clips from the episode racking up over 22 million views.

ADHD: Unmasked is an interactive, dopamine-filled evening where Hester shares how to embrace a fast-paced mind, practise self-compassion, and tap into the strengths of neurodiversity. She’ll also speak candidly about family life—raising two autistic/ADHD teenagers and living with her autistic/ADHD husband—as well as navigating ADHD in the workplace, friendships, relationships, and late diagnosis.

Audience participation is welcome, with opportunities to ask questions throughout. Whether you’ve received a diagnosis or are just starting your journey, this event offers connection, laughter, and a sense of belonging. You’ll leave feeling empowered, informed—and most importantly—reminded that you are not alone.

Hester began her media career on Channel 5’s The Wright Stuff, going on to work with Loose Women and Today with Des and Mel. She has featured on BBC Radio 2, Radio 4, Radio 5 Live, and hosted her own show on BBC Radio Berkshire.

She has appeared on leading podcasts such as ADHD Chatter, The Hidden 20%, and ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast, and her writing has been published by HuffPost, Evening Standard, Reader’s Digest, and Arabian Business.

Alongside her husband Kelly, Hester co-founded Perfectly Autistic, a neurodiversity consultancy providing training, talks, and coaching to support neurodivergent employees. Both were diagnosed with ADHD in their forties, after Kelly’s earlier autism diagnosis.

Hester says: “I’m so excited to tour the UK talking about ADHD—something I’m truly passionate about. Being diagnosed in my forties finally gave me the answers I’d been searching for my whole life. With growing awareness, so many people have questions and want to understand more. This evening will be fun, entertaining, and honest—and nothing’s off limits.”

ADHD: Unmasked comes to the Torch Theatre on Friday 6 June at 7:30pm.
Tickets: £26

MILFORD WATERFRONT will be bursting with Easter fun this April as it hosts a variety of free, family-friendly activities to celebrate the season.

Over the weekend of Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 April, a spring-themed market will take place from 10:00am to 4:00pm, offering seasonal treats, crafts, and local produce. Children can also meet Rascal the Easter Bunny, who will be making a special walkabout appearance on Saturday (Apr 5) from midday until 2:30pm.

On Wednesday 16 April, families are invited to visit Milford Haven Museum to discover the town’s rich maritime history. Afterwards, youngsters can collect a free Easter trail map and set off on a chocolate-themed treasure hunt around the waterfront’s shops and attractions. Completed trails can be exchanged for a small Easter egg. More details are available at www.milfordwaterfront.co.uk.

Throughout the Easter season, visitors can indulge in seasonal delights from a range of independent businesses, including artisan chocolates at Trwffl and Dilly’s, or natural skincare gifts from Akamuti. The waterfront is also home to a selection of boutique clothing and gift shops—perfect for finding something special this spring.

Adventurous visitors can make the most of the season by getting out on the water, with Milford Beach Activity Centre offering stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking experiences. And for those looking to dine out, the waterfront’s many restaurants will be unveiling their new spring menus, featuring locally sourced seafood and family favourites with marina views.

ONE of Wales’ most anticipated music festivals is returning to Crymych next month – with a packed line-up of top Welsh talent already confirmed.

The Fel ‘Na Mai Festival will take place on Saturday (May 3) at the Frenni Transport site in Parc Gwynfryn Estate, marking its fourth year of bringing live music and family-friendly fun to the Preseli area.

Organisers say this year’s programme is one of the strongest to date, with a wide range of acts spanning folk, rock, psychedelic and contemporary music set to appear across two main stages.

The Foel Drigarn Stage will run from 1:15pm until late, opening with performances from the choirs of Ysgol Bro Preseli and Ysgol Cilgerran. They will be followed by Dewin, winners of the Best Group category at the 2025 Ail Symudiad Awards.

Festival newcomers Taran, an energetic folk rock group, will make their debut before heavy rock band Mattoidz take over the stage. Mali Haf, known for her vibrant and charming performances, will also appear.

As dusk falls, popular singer-songwriter Meinir Gwilym and her band will perform, followed by the much-requested return of Gwilym. The night will conclude with a headline set by Yws Gwynedd and his band.

The Y Frenni Fawr Stage, running from 1:35pm to 7:10pm, offers an equally strong line-up. Côr Rocesi’r Fro, led by Einir Dafydd, will open the stage before a set by Llandjango, inspired by the sounds of Django Reinhardt.

Danny Sioned, winner of the Individual Prize at the Ail Symudiad Awards, will take to the stage, followed by a performance from retired rocker Cleif Harpwood, who will revisit some favourites from the 1970s. Rising contemporary group Lavant and psychedelic rock band Pys Melyn from Pen Llŷn will round off the programme.

Both stages will be hosted by local presenter and musician Mari Grug.

In addition to live music, organisers say the festival is a day out for the whole family, with a dedicated children’s area offering a range of activities for younger visitors.

A licensed bar will be provided in partnership with Crymych Rugby Club, and this year sees the introduction of a new gin bar from In The Welsh Wind. Local food vendors will also be on site throughout the day.

Parking is available at the Frenni Transport site and nearby locations within the Parc Gwynfryn estate. Facilities are also in place for those wishing to camp or stay in motorhomes during the event.
