World CP Day 2023
On World CP Day 2023, Action Cerebral Palsy calls on MPs, Peers and Local Authorities asking them to improve workforce skills and knowledge of cerebral palsy, engage with parents, carers and young people living with cerebral palsy, and share information about the early warning signs.

Action Cerebral Palsy launches public awareness campaign
Helping parents and early sign-posters to recognise the warning signs and the need to seek urgent medical referral.
“Cerebral palsy is a lifelong condition, there is no cure, and despite it being the most common physical disability in childhood there was little support in helping us as parents adjust to the new reality of our lives; a lifelong commitment as carers. That may now change thanks to the work and efforts of Action Cerebral Palsy; they are working hard to try to ensure that no more parents face the anxiety, loneliness and isolation that we have felt and that children and their families have the support and help that they need at every stage of their journey.”
– Helen Hunt, mother of Wilf
