As a condition of the Winston Churchill Travel Fellowship, I have to produce a report of up to 20 pages. I have decided to draft it here, in public as it were, so that the process of its writing as much as the final report itself will be open. If I were to identify one symbol to stand for the whole endeavour, it would be the Question Mark. After living with cerebral palsy for the best part of 25 years, partly as a Dad, partly as someone who chose to attempt to deliver better services to children with motor disorders and their families, my overwhelming sense is of more questions than answers.
There. I may have just written the bare first draft of the Introduction to the report. A start is made.
