Gene study for Dyspraxia/DCD
A Study about Coordination Problems and Genes. An important ongoing study at the Dyscovery Centre, Cardiff. Please help if you can!
Some children find every day tasks hard such as ball games and team games, riding a bike and writing. At the Dyscovery Centre we want to learn more about the causes of DCD.
Who is being invited to participate?
Children aged between 5 and 16 years old who have been either assessed or diagnosed with co-ordination difficulties and their biological parents. We are also interested in hearing from parents who feel their chid may have dyspraxia/DCD.
Families are free to withdraw from the study at any time.
What does the study involve?
If you and your child agree to participate in the study, we will send you a pack to complete. This will take about 45 minutes. All information will be labelled with an identiy number to ensure confidentiality.
If your family would like to take part in our study, please contact
