‘Down to earth’ 11-year-old twins with ADHD nominated for Queen’s Birthday Honours award

A pair of 11-year-old twins with ADHD, who began fundraising for charity by running through muddy fields, have been nominated for a Queen’s Birthday Honours award.

Ruben and Elena Evans-Guillen from Warrington have taken on an extraordinary range of physical challenges since they were six years old. They have now raised over £46k for the NHS and NHS-related charities.

The twins, who go to St Peter’s Catholic Primary School, hope to help lessen the stigma around ADHD and raise awareness for its positives. Over the past five years, they have run, swam, trekked and climbed during their weekends to raise money for charity.
