The
Programme was developed to help children who were struggling with a
wide range of developmental difficulties. This includes children with
a diagnosis of autistic
spectrum disorder and other developmental
difficulties including bedwetting, sleeping difficulties,
balance and co-ordination problems, resistance to writing,
communication difficulties, aggression and hyperactivity.
If your child has a number of seemingly unconnected problems use our
