The Rainbow Centre
The Rainbow Centre helps children with motor impairment learn to overcome their difficulties using a system of learning called Conductive Education.
Motor impairment means difficulty with movements controlled by the central nervous system and the most common cause of this is cerebral palsy.
Cerebral palsy is a condition caused through lack of oxygen to the brain during pregnancy, during the delivery, or after the birth. One in four hundred babies is affected and the condition is not curable, but the difficulties experienced can be overcome in many cases.
