Children's Physiotherapy

Who we are

Children’s Community Physiotherapists are specialists in the assessment of physical development and abilities of babies, children and young people from birth to 19 years.  We aim to help children develop their functional ability and mobility within the limits of their condition. Your child’s Physiotherapist will come from one of four CCHP teams of Physiotherapists based in North, South and East/Central Bristol and South Gloucestershire.

We see Children and young people up until their 18th birthday (or up to 19 if in full time education), when there is a concern about their physical development.

This film describes the role of a physiotherapist in the life of two twins living with cerebral palsy and with one of the boys attending Claremont School in Bristol.
