Hi, I'm Lucy, an 18 year old college student.

I am currently undertaking an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), looking into the evidence there is to support the efficacy of different therapy treatments on children with Cerebral Palsy. I've produced a survey to help with my research and was wondering if there were any parents of children with CP who wouldn't mind filling this out on their child's behalf.

Thank you so much

    Hi @lucygracekemp - & welcome to the community. I hope you don't mind, but I've looked at your survey. With therapies, you mention physio, then hydrotherapy; whom do you imagine might give hydrotherapy?
    I can't comment upon hippotherapy, whilst appreciating it could help children with CP. Your last 'therapy' link is to 'intensive suit therapy.' How widespread do you think this is in the UK?
    Might your questions rather reflect on the diversity of therapies currently available in the UK?

    I've done it...in a way I think you need to be be a bit more specific in asking people which suit therapy (there are a few different approaches) and what kinds of physio (ditto).  And of course you haven't asked at all about other things like Conductive Education; but maybe you only want to look at NHS type provision?  This is a huge subject; and I know how much work needs to go  into an EPQ (and that they are marked by people who almost always know nothing about the subject under discussion!)  Good luck
