My granddaughter who has just been diagnosed with cerebral palsy, will be coming into my care very soon so I’m hoping to be able to gain as much information and support as possible to be able to help her live life to her full potential.

Thanks Richard. It’s early days for us. Our granddaughter is only two and a half and has impaired vision. It’s great to know we can access factual information regarding treatment, rights etc. We’ve a long road ahead of us.0
