Western Cape Cerebral Palsy Association to celebrate National Cerebral Palsy Week

We also heard from Hilary Lane – CEO of the Western Cape Cerebral Palsy Association. This week marks the National Cerebral Palsy Week. National Cerebral Palsy Week is celebrated annually to recognise the achievements of people with cerebral palsy and to create greater awareness, understanding and acceptance. The association says it takes many forms as no two persons with Cerebral Palsy are precisely alike since some are so slightly affected that their disability is barely detectable, while the most severely affected can have multiple and profound disabilities. For further information you can contact the Western Cape Cerebral Palsy Association on (021) 685 4150 or visit www.wccpa.org.za
