  • Has your child at any age, experienced a regression in language or motor skills?
  • As you have indicated that your child has experienced a regression in language or motor skills, you must be referred to a paediatrician or paediatric neurologist in the first instance.  This is to ensure any assessment is administered in accordance with NICE Guidelines.
