Who we can help
Although we are unable to offer our usual face to face therapy service at our centre (due to Covid-19), we are still here for you and your child.
- We are still taking referrals directly from families living in Wales who have concerns about their baby’s development
- We are currently taking calls from any family living in Wales concerned about their child who has cerebral palsy
If you have any queries or concerns relating to your baby or child, whether they have a confirmed diagnosis of cerebral palsy or not please contact us. We are offering telephone consultations to assess how best to help. This may be followed by a telephone or video consultation with the appropriate therapist. A short report and home programme of ideas based on the consultation will be sent to you, as well as the team around your child.
Our Family Support Coordinator, Glenys Evans, is also available if you need any practical advice or emotional support or just a chat to let us know how you are doing. She can be contacted at glenyse@cerebralpalsycymru.org
Please get in touch by emailing us on info@cerebralpalsycymru.org or telephoning us on 02920 522600.

Held at home, a small gathering of friends with plenty of cake and coffee plus donations, £97.00, not bad I thought. Still held at home it is an annual event on m…

Sienna’s story
The early intervention programme, has been such a comfort to us as we were doing something positive from pretty much day one for Sienna. The support and comfort that Cerebral Palsy Cymru provides means that the therapy doesn’t just stop with the child who receives it, the whole family benefits.

Fred Soper
Bobath to me means I can give something back to my community. I was a customer at Crwys road and liked the atmosphere that the manager created. The volunteers are happy and the manager is kind-hearted and good with everyone so when I got the opportunity to volunteer my first choice was Bobath.

Ffion’s story
Each visit to Cerebral Palsy Cymru’s therapy centre in Cardiff meant a 130-mile round trip to get to the centre but it was well worth it. The sessions were a great tool and taught us how to help Ffion and how to continue with her physiotherapy at home.
