    Hi Fran89,

    Welcome to the online community. We have regional workers (subject to where you live) covering England and Wales and they are great at providing information and support to families with new diagnoses of Cerebral Palsy. We also have some Face2Face befriending services which might be available in your area too. Please call us at the helpline and we can talk through of all this with you. We're open from 9am-5pm 0808 800 3333 and you can email us too helpline@scope.org.uk You also have the wonderful community to talk to and share stories and information with. There are a lot of parents on here who have been or are going through the same as you, so don't feel alone and don't be afraid to ask questions.

    Kind regards

    Debbie
