Therapy at Cerebral Palsy Scotland can be funded in different ways.
Funded therapy for children
We are currently offering the following funded therapy options for children:
- Our Better Start programme offers funded therapy sessions to children and their families in particular areas of Scotland.
- Our fortnightly Baby buds sessions for children aged 0-2 and their families are offered at no cost to families.
From time to time, funded projects for specific ages, areas or other criteria become available. Keep updated by signing up to our newsletter and following us on social media.
Funding children’s therapy at Cerebral Palsy Scotland
The cost of part-funded children’s therapy can be met in different ways.
- If your child has a primary diagnosis of cerebral palsy, we would encourage you to contact us straight away. Whatever the circumstances, we will take the time to listen to your individual needs, and discuss how we can help.
- If you don’t feel able to meet the cost of therapy, please don’t worry. We will never turn anyone away simply on the basis of ability to pay.
- Some children’s therapy costs can be met through Self-Directed Support.
- Many people or families raise money to contribute towards the cost of therapy sessions. To find out more, please contact the fundraising team and we’ll give you all the help you need to get started. Please talk to us if you’re thinking of setting up an online fundraising page – we can help you to take advantage of Gift Aid.
