MOVE

The Move programme is a philosophy, a way of life for disabled children and children with complex needs, providing the personalised care and support they need to gain functional mobility and increased independence.

Put simple, the Move programme is a practice put in place so disabled children are supported to gain the physical and communication skills they need in order to:

  • SIT to eat, participate in activities, education and eventual employment.
  • STAND to increase strength, mobility and flexibility.
  • WALK to participate in play or complete tasks, with and without support.
  • TRANSITION from bed to chair or sitting or standing.

At Holly Grove we like to get out of our chairs as much as possible and Move help us to access our activities in different positions throughout the day. Our physio programmes are now tied into the Move programme.
