Therapy
About half of the children and young adults registered with Roshni have cerebral palsy, a condition which affects their ability to control their posture and movements.
Through regular physiotherapy and occupational therapy (OT), the youngsters learn to balance and move, use their hands, and in many cases, learn skills which allow them more independance.
Since joining Roshni, this young man has learnt to sit, and propel his new wheelchair. This has given him a whole new lease of life, as he is now able to move where and when he likes, instead of relying on his family to carry him around.
