Our next iHV Insights event:

Launch of the iHV Motor Development Toolkit – book here
Date: Thurs 21 November 2024
Time: 15:30-16:30

During this iHV Insights event our key speakers, Dr Anne-Marie Childs, Consultant Paediatric Neurologist from Leeds Teaching Hospital and Pilar Cloud, Chief Executive at Action Cerebral Palsy, will share their insights about motor development. They will be discussing what typical motor development looks like and when to worry, especially when considering Cerebral Palsy or Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA).

We will also be joined by a parent of a child with Cerebral Palsy, sharing how recognition of delayed and atypical motor development led to her diagnosis.

Plus, be the first to hear details of our new iHV Motor Development resources that are currently being developed and will be available in the new year.
