Footprints is a Nottingham based charity which transforms the lives of children living with mobility and communication difficulties across the East Midlands. At our centre and through our support, babies and children develop the skills they need to thrive and achieve their potential.
Our work is inspired by the principles and practices of Conductive Education, a holistic education approach developed to help children living with disabilities consciously learn the life skills that come more naturally to others.
We are so proud of all of our children, their families and their many incredible achievements. We are delighted to share just some of their stories.

"Thank you for submitting a good end of grant report for your project which provides pre-school Conductive Education, gym club and swimming sessions, and outcomes summarised as improved motor skills, improved communication skills and children having fun.
The additional differences really focused on the social interaction the project provides with peers, staff and families, and how parents/carers learn valuable skills themselves by attending, which can then be continued in the home. It was interesting to hear how one of your work experience students from college had previously attended sessions, how lovely that they now want to learn how to support other children."
