Ageing well with cerebral palsy

Please join us online on Tuesday 25 March between 7.00-8.00pm for an informative webinar looking at ageing with cerebral palsy.

Hosted by Kirsty Colquhoun, Consultant Geriatrician, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.

We are hosting this webinar as part of Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month.

About the webinar

We will look at how cerebral palsy can impact on the ageing process, as well as societal barriers that can have a negative impact on how we age with cerebral palsy.

But, it is not all doom and gloom, we will look at the positive steps we can take to age well and learn from case studies of older adults with cerebral palsy to show that it is never too old to improve!
