“The therapy my eight-year-old daughter, Lynsey, receives at Bobath Scotland has made a significant impression on her and our family. We saw an immediate change in her when she first started attending.
“The charity does marvellous work and makes an enormous impact on children’s lives. I am delighted to be able to give something back by way of a thank you for the difference Bobath Scotland has made to my little girl and the hundreds of other children who benefit from its input.”

“The work they do at Bobath Scotland is fantastic. The therapists all have such a lovely nature, and feel like part of the family. There’s a very relaxed atmosphere in the centre and they make you feel at ease. My husband, Brian and I can’t thank them enough for what they’ve helped Marco to achieve.”
