Welcome to HemiHelp
HemiHelp is a UK based charity for children and young people with hemiplegia.
What is hemiplegia?
Hemiplegia is a neurological condition that weakens one side of the body, and affects up to one child in a thousand. It is sometimes described as a form of cerebral palsy, and the effects are similar to those of a stroke.
