Is your child struggling with coordination or everyday tasks such as writing, dressing, or using cutlery even when they try their best? In this talk, we will explore Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), also known as dyspraxia or "clumsy child syndrome", and how it affects movement and daily functioning. You will learn to recognise early signs, better understand your child’s challenges, and discover practical ways to support their development with greater confidence at home and in school.
