Thanks for your post and welcome to our online community. I have found some information and groups local to you that might helpful Norfolk Community Healthcare and Each Support Group.
I would speak to your G.P. or Paediatrician about the treatment options for your son. These might include:
Physiotherapy
Hydrotherapy (which is exercises in a heated swimming pool)
We also have lots of information on the community such as Therapies and support from other Parents and Carers
If I can help further please do let me know.

We do not have such a list.
My understanding is that when it comes to stem cells being a possible, safe and reliable treatment for cerebral palsy, things are still very much at the research stage.
In my opinion, a good source of impartial advice about stem cell research is the EuroStemCell website:
https://www.eurostemcell.org/
They have a page specific to cp:
https://www.eurostemcell.org/cerebral-palsy-how-could-stem-cells-help
Personally, I would be confident that if there are any significant, peer-reviewed future breakthroughs with research EuroStemCell will publish about it.
