Premature babies or babies with a low birth weight requiring developmental input
Positional or structural talipes (foot turned inwards/outwards from birth)

Children with any genetic diagnosis or disability including Trisomy 21, gene duplications/ deletions, Prada Willi Syndrome, Turner’s Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy
