Developmental Co-ordination Disorder (DCD), also known as Dyspraxia in the UK, is a common disorder affecting motor co-ordination in children and for many continues into adulthood. This condition is formally recognised by international organisations including the World Health Organisation. DCD is distinct from other motor disorders such as cerebral palsy and stroke. The range of intellectual ability is in line with the general population. Individuals may vary in how their difficulties present. The co-ordination difficulties may affect participation and functioning of everyday life skills in education, work and employment. Children may present with difficulties in writing, typing, riding a bike, self care tasks, and recreational activities. In adulthood many of these difficulties will continue, as well as learning new skills at home and work such as planning, organisation, driving a car and DIY.
