What is Cerebral Palsy?

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of lifelong neurological disorders that affect movement, muscle tone, and posture due to abnormal brain development or brain injury before, during, or shortly after birth.

The effects of CP vary widely and can include muscle stiffness, weakness, difficulty with balance and coordination, and challenges with speech or fine motor skills. Although cerebral palsy is not curable, early intervention and personalised care can help individuals with CP improve mobility, develop independence, and enhance their quality of life.

Are You or a Loved One Living with the Challenges of Cerebral Palsy?

Living with cerebral palsy can present unique physical and emotional challenges. Everyday activities may require extra time, effort, or adaptive tools, and mobility issues can make it hard to engage fully in school, work, or social activities. For family members, finding the right support and care can feel overwhelming. But with compassionate guidance and personalised support, individuals with CP can build strength, develop new skills, and lead fulfilling lives.

Cerebral Palsy Brings Challenges – But It Doesn’t Have to Limit Potential

  • Physical and Mobility Barriers: Muscle stiffness, coordination difficulties, and motor challenges that can affect daily life and independence.
  • Emotional Impact: Frustration, social isolation, and the emotional toll of navigating a world that isn’t always accessible.
  • Fairness: Everyone deserves access to expert care and support to reach their fullest potential and enjoy an empowered, independent life.
