Bobath Children's Therapy Centre Wales provides specialist Bobath therapy to children in Wales who have cerebral palsy. Bobath therapy consists of physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy. Children are referred to the Centre by their consultant paediatrician and we accept children regardless of the severity of their disability.
Although the brain damage that occurs is permanent and there is no cure available, Bobath therapy makes a real and positive difference to children in Wales who have cerebral palsy. This year the Bobath Centre needs to raise over £800,000 to keep the Centre open and see every child who needs us.
