Today is World Cerebral Palsy Day, which is a global observance that shines a spotlight on cerebral palsy. The day is celebrated every year on 6th October. The theme for this year's World Cerebral Palsy Day is Together Stronger. It highlights the importance of unity, collaboration, and mutual support within the cerebral palsy community and beyond. Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders that affect a person's ability to move and maintain balance and posture. 

This day serves as a platform to raise awareness about Cerebral Palsy, support those living with the condition, and advocate for greater inclusion and understanding. It also emphasises that when individuals, families, caregivers, and communities come together, they become a powerful force for positive change and inclusion.
