World CP Day


World CP Day will change the lives of people with cerebral palsy. The website, World CP Day is a forum for people with cerebral palsy to express what they need to make their life more independent or more rewarding. How does this work?

Post your ideas-From August 1- people with cerebral palsy, families, friends and professionals can post ideas about how they want to improve the quality of life of people with cerebral palsy. According to the website, these ideas could affect any aspects of the person's life including, mobility, communication or social connection. Post your ideas online as text or video. Each idea must only take 1 minute to read or watch.

Vote on ideas-From September 4, anyone can go online to review the ideas and vote for the ones that will have the greatest impact on people's lives.

Best Idea win- At the end of September, The World Cerebral Palsy Day Panel will review your votes and select the best ideas.

Making Ideas A Reality-  In November, social activist, researchers, inventors and innovators are invited to go online and propose how they would make these ideas a reality.
