Get Involved

Your incredible efforts make a huge difference to our Dyspraxia community. Every mile you run, event you organise or challenge you take on provides support, advice and hope to those living with dyspraxia and their families!

There are so many ways in which you can support Dyspraxia Foundation, and have fun too, so don’t hesitate to get creative! From popular activities such as coffee mornings and physical events, to challenges of a lifetime or simple things.

Below are some of the ways you can support us.

Do your own thing!
