Leaflets, Advice and Supportive Information

For parents and carers: Association of Paediatric Charted Physiotherapists (APCP) have produced a number of information leaflets on a range of conditions and topics commonly referred to children's physiotherapists for advice and support. The leaflets have been included in the links below for you to freely access and aim to offer advice you can use at home.

For health professionals: These leaflets are freely available and intended for distribution to parents and carers. APCP is therefore happy for any physiotherapist or other healthcare professional / healthcare organisation to download and print these leaflets for distribution in clinical practice. APCP also allows uploading of these leaflets to other website servers to facilitate distribution to families.
