Hi @Smoky345 , welcome to Scope's online community!

We have a section on here that is dedicated to Cerebel Palsey: https://community.scope.org.uk/categories/physical-impairments-and-cerebral-palsy 

that you might find useful, and there's an NHS page on treatments here:

I hope that helps and you can find some information,
Becca

Hi @Smoky345,

Welcome to Scope's online community! It's great to have you here.

As @BeccaShark123 mentions, we have a group in our community dedicated to discussions about Cerebral Palsy. I've moved this post into that category so other members can advise.

I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, then please do get in touch.

Hi @Smoky345 I have mild cerebral palsy and have noticed a slight decline in my mobility over the last couple of years. However I have had more physio and try to keep as active as possible in order to combat this x
