Looking for advise and support

Hi I'm Paige, My youngest daughter has CP that mostly just affects her left ankle - so she tip toes. Although she is almost 3 and a half developmentally I would say she is about 2 and a half, so sometimes this is difficult. Looking for advise and support I thought it would be a good idea to join. As GP etc have not been that helpful in fact the GP has never spoken to me regarding the CP.

A very warm welcome to the community. It's great to meet you!
I live with CP myself and work for Scope. We are a really friendly community with lots of knowledge and real-life experiences of living with a disability.
Really sorry to read that your G.P hasn't been very helpful.
Has your little one received a formal diagnosis of CP? She should also be under the care of a paediatrician.
