For children with cerebral palsy, access to the right support can make a real difference.
Yet globally, children with cerebral palsy still face inequitable access to basic services, including rehabilitation, education, and inclusion — despite clear evidence that these services improve outcomes.
Access to the right support shouldn’t depend on where a child lives, and this needs to change.
This World Cerebral Palsy Day, we want to know: what change do you want to see for people with cerebral palsy?
Share your change and tag a local leader, business, or community organisation who can help make it happen.
#WorldCPDay #UniqueANDUnited
You’ve chosen your change. Now, who can help make it happen?
Think about the people, businesses, and organisations around you who have the power to create change.
A local leader?
A business?
A community organisation?
Tag their official public account and let them know what change you want to see.

Cerebral palsy affects people differently. That means the barriers someone faces and the changes they want to see can be different too.
That’s why this World Cerebral Palsy Day, we’re making space for individual experiences and the changes people want to see.
What`s your change?
#WorldCPDay #UniqueANDUnited
Your change can be big or small, local or global.
What matters is that it’s something you want to see change for people with cerebral palsy.
It might be about work, education or sport, or something bigger like access to support, technology or having a say in decisions. #UniqueANDUnited

Change Inspiration: In the workplace
At work, people living with cerebral palsy bring their own skills, ideas, experience and ambitions.
They are leaders, innovators, problem-solvers and valued colleagues. Their careers should be shaped by their abilities and aspirations, not limited by inaccessible systems or assumptions.
The change we want to see: accessible recruitment, inclusive workplaces and equal opportunities to lead and succeed.
