Paces, based in Sheffield, was founded by parents of children with cerebral palsy in 1997 and has worked ever since to support those families, children and adults who are living with neurological conditions. We offer innovative conductive education programmes to help transform their lives.

Story

Paces is a specialist centre, school and charity all rolled into one! We support children and adults living with neurological conditions such as Cerebral Palsy, Stroke, MS, Parkinsons and brain injury from all around our region.

At Paces, we believe that everyone has the right to achieve their true potential; we believe in ability, not disability! At Paces, through a method of support called Conductive Education we teach our children life-changing skills such as sitting, standing, walking, speaking, communication and self-care all in an environment they can have fun, develop friendships, and feel like they belong.

We offer a special needs curriculum for 3-18 years olds as we do not believe that a childs education should suffer due to their disability. This means that if we start supporting a child from three years old we could be part of their support network throughout their whole life, as once they have moved from education they can join our adult service and reap the benefits of this programme.

Paces has been providing exceptional, specialist support for adults with neurological movement disorders for over 22 years. This helps them to live active, enabled, meaningful and productive lives. Our highly specialised Conductive Education approach allows us to raise the expectations and achievements of these individuals beyond what they, or others, may have believed was possible. We have a unique Adult Services which is the only day care centre in the UK to offer a Conductive Education Programme for the adults we support.

We also deliver an Adult Sessional Programme, where we support those living with the effects of a Stroke, MS, Parkinsons and Brain Injury. In these sessions, where we re-teach the skills which have been lost due to their illness.
