What is dyspraxia / DCD?

Dyspraxia, also known as Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), is a neurodevelopmental difference that affects the development of coordination, motor planning, sequencing and organisation.

  • It can affect children, young people and adults, and can impact everyday tasks at home, school, work and in the community.

  • With the right understanding and support, individuals can develop strategies, build confidence and reach their full potential.

  • Assessment brings clarity — and clarity opens the door to the right adjustments.
