Join us to find out more about the condition dyspraxia, also known as Developmental co-ordination disorder (DCD), how it affects physical co-ordination and what approaches can help.

The trainer, Sue Willis from Act4SEND, has a vast wealth of experience in the field of inclusion. She has worked as an Advisory Teacher since 2013.

She also has experience of tutoring as a dyslexia specialist teacher.

This is a free training event for parent carers of children with additional needs and/or disabilities within North Somerset. This event is also open to professionals in North Somerset who work with children/young people with additional needs and/or disabilities. Priority on place allocation will therefore be given to residents in North Somerset but if additional spaces are available these will be allocated to parent carers outside of North Somerset at our discretion.

The funding is being granted through Pears Foundation’s trusted, long-term Partners to ensure funding gets to frontline organisations and their communities.

We would like to thank the Pears Foundation whose philanthropic support of NSPCWT has made this training freely available.

The funding is part of the Government’s £750m charities package.
