When parents discover that their child has a neurological movement disorder, the effects on that family are wide-reaching. Staff working in Red Boots Children’s Services are all professionally trained in Conductive Education to address the needs of such families and transform these children’s lives.

Adult conductive services were first established in 1990 at the centre in Birmingham. As well as providing services to people with Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, stroke, cerebral palsy and neurological conditions resulting in movement problems the centre also carries out research and training. The overarching aim of the department is to provide relevant, high quality services based on individual needs of the person with the condition and their family.
