Dyspraxic people and parents/carers told us what we can do, as members of society to help dyspraxic people feel accepted and included.
Awareness and understanding - Dyspraxic people want others to know about dyspraxia and to include dyspraxic people in their lives and activities respectfully and with kindness. They don’t want to have to explain why and how their lives are different and the adjustments they need to feel included. They want to feel accepted for who they are without judgement or prejudice and don’t want attention drawn to their differences or to be judged for making simple mistakes.
- Take the time to listen to me, make an effort to talk to me and support me. Invite me or do activities with me and not have pressure for me to be “good” at them.
- I just want people to ask questions and show interest in me and show they want to make a space for someone who is different from them.
- People actually knowing what dyspraxia is. I don’t want to be in vulnerable situations and then need to explain something like that.
