DYSPRAXIA ACTION!
For some people, the simple action of tying shoelaces can be difficult. This could be due to dyspraxia.
Dyspraxia Action! was set up to subsidise dyspraxia assessments for people in financial hardship.
Dyspraxia, a form of developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is a lifelong condition, affecting fine and/or gross motor coordination in children and adults.
Therapists working with children and adults with dyspraxia found that GPs and their clinical commissioning groups would rarely fund private diagnostic assessments for older children or adults, even though there is no NHS service available once a child leaves the pediatric services around the age of ten in some areas.
This means that doors, which could be open to help with work, study and improving mental health are closed to people who can’t afford the assessments and any follow-up support.
