Day 4 of Dyspraxia Week 2023 sees us release another information sheet - How parents/carers can help the person they care for feel less isolated and more connected
Parents/carers can help the dyspraxic people they care for feel included and part of society in many ways. This includes advocating for them, involving them in events and activities, and helping them recognise their strengths and talents.
Advocacy - sharing information about dyspraxia and how it affects the person you care for helps others understand their needs, recognise their strengths and make appropriate adjustments to include them.
- Explain to people why he might find an activity or task a bit more of a challenge, to ask them to have more patience if he is taking more time to voice his opinion.
- I make sure they know he is very capable and they must give him processing time to respond in a conversation properly and not just pass over him.
- Over the years we have taken her to different after school groups and just tell the person who runs it she has dyspraxia.
