Spastic Diplegia Parents Network

Leo, lives near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire and has been attending PACE for three years. In that time, his parents have seen great improvements from his attendance at the centre. Whats so special about PACE? At PACE children with physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy find their own voice, walk their own steps and discover that they can fully enjoy everyday life and become active members of society. Cerebral palsy is a physical condition affecting movement as a result of damage to the brain. We believe in each childs ability to learn despite their disability. We provide a loving and inspirational environment, motivating children with physical disabilities to work hard at achieving their goals. Our focus is on educating for life developing a childs social, emotional, communication, academic and motor skills. Every childs achievement is a direct result of our unique staff team, all working together in one centre with the child at its heart. PACE is a charity and school inspired by the principles of Conductive Education, a system which emphasizes that children develop as a whole. Why PACE needs your help, one in very 400 children in the UK is affected by cerebral palsy. Your support enables us to reach children and families though intensive programmes, training and outreach. We depend on donations from trusts, businesses, groups and individuals. Please visit our website www.thepacecentre.org
