Adult CP Hub Marks World CP Day - mailchi.mp/af76f3a3cd49/a…
Today is #WorldCerebralPalsyDay. Some of our #hydrotherapy users have #CP, which comes in many forms 👇 The buoyancy of the warm water is a great way to exercise in a safe way, relax tense muscles and gain pain relief. It's also good fun!
Tomorrow is World Cerebral Palsy Day! Cerebral palsy is a lifelong disability affecting around 17 million people throughout the world. Our online community are discussing what #WorldCPDay is, and how they're getting involved 👇 #CPMakeYourMark community.scope.org.uk/discussion/741…
It's tomorrow...#WorldCerebralPalsyDay #6October #CPMakeYourMark #CPCan #MoveAtOne #GoGreenforCP #CPAwareness 😁👍
Do you use the Get Yourself Active website? We're looking for people to join online focus groups. We're still looking for Social Workers/Social Care workforce for a session on the 12th & Sports and PA providers for a session on the 16th. email: [email protected]
We’ve supported 8,200 community groups with over £400m across the UK since March to tackle local problems caused by #COVID19. Hear how #NationalLottery funds helped @Disability_DP, @solasbt7, @HuggardCentre & @mindyourhead. Read more 👇 tnlcommunityfund.org.uk/news/press-rel…

A new report shows that there is only 1⃣ council-owned accessible parking bay for every 3⃣8⃣ blue badge holders - shar.es/ab8pO7. Concerning information for all those who rely on these to get out and live independent lives.
Here's a super story from @Disability_DP about the valuable benefits its #handyman service is delivering to #disabled and older people around the city - facebook.com/DisabilityPete… It also features a wonderful lady who has done so much for St George's #Hydrotherapy Pool. 😊
Public toilets are a service that for years have been ignored. They are absolutely critical to many. Our map on lockdownloo.com is still used tens of thousands of times a day, which shows how important they are. 🚽
