Adapting life with Cerebral Palsy

I’m Danny And im a para athlete, nursery worker and a disability advocate. I have hemiplegia on my left side.

My Cerebral Palsy is quite mild and cannot be seen straight away unless you know what you’re looking for as most times I can hide it.

Since I’ve worked on my Cerebral palsy from an early age I’m now able to do things most people thought I couldn’t, living with CP has its tough times but I work through them and adapt them where I need to. i have made an E book for adaptation s that can be made to help exercise with confidence.

I’m also a new parent, I have a 6 month old little boy who I absolutely adore, being a parent with CP has many challenges but I am to show what it’s like through my experiences and give tips on how I adapt life with a baby to hopefully help others.

I do social media and my own page showing my life with cerebral palsy and everyday tasks and ways to exercise and my journey to become a Paralympian. My aim is to help educate people about how people with CP live their lives and careers just like other people on the world

We need to be shown more as there are many types of disabilities in the world and I believe we need to help others see this

Collapsible text is perfect for longer content like paragraphs and descriptions. It’s a great way to give people more information while keeping your layout clean. Link your text to anything, including an external website or a different page. You can set your text box to expand and collapse when people click, so they can read more or less info.
