So pleased to have been able to support Action CP with this important campaign. Early identification is key for early intervention and support.

Well done everyone. Another great start to the EiSmart Infant course. 😊 https://twitter.com/gosiajcpcymru/status/1577604361617899520
Great start to the 'Ei Smart Infant Course' at @CP_Cymru discussing key principles and theoretical underpinnings for Early Assessment and Intervention with @Bettyhutchon and Chris Barber @EI_Smart @JCarrollCPCymru @marissam934 @RinavanderWalt1 @HeatherHolgate
Yet, cerebral palsy is still one of the least understood disabilities. This needs to change. We must ensure a future where children and adults with CP have the same rights, access and opportunities as anyone else in our society. #WorldCPDay #Green4CP @OntarioBrain @HBKidsHospital
World CP Day reminds us that there are 34,000 people in Australia with cerebral palsy.
My CP Guide is the new online resource about cerebral palsy. Hundreds of resources are available to read, watch, listen to, download or print out.
