We were honoured to appear on BBC Radio London with presenter Shay Grewal, as our CEO Brett Parker and incredible Ambassador Emily Farruku joined the conversation to talk about the urgent challenges facing children with movement disorders — and why we’ve launched our Ticking Clocks Appeal.
With the recent closure of specialist therapy centres and rising operational costs, families across the UK are facing devastating gaps in support. Brett spoke about the increasing strain on charities like CPotential, who receive no government funding, yet continue to deliver life-changing therapy to over 400 children each year.
Emily, who started at CPotential when she was just 3 years old, shared her powerful story of progress and independence — and why she’s proud to lead this campaign as our ambassador. Her words are a reminder of what’s possible when children get the right support at the right time.
