Footprints is a Nottingham based charity which transforms the lives of children 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 your year 2 report. As always you have clearly achieved some great outcomes with this project which helps to improve children who live with disabilities motor skills, supports and improves their methods of communication (whether verbal or not) and thus allows children to have fun both individually and with other young friends.
We can see that the differences are holistic, in the sense that parents are present at every session and so they too benefit from the conductive education, so that they can continue to implement this in the home environment. I imagine it also helps them to feel very involved in their child's care and progress."
