Adult and paediatric cerebral palsy services in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin are commissioned by the local integrated care board (ICB). Whilst there are no specific programmes of work connected to cerebral palsy within the ICB's existing improvement programme, as the ICB updates its Integrated Care System Strategy and Joint Forward Plan, it will be developing its clinical strategies across all patient services, including for cerebral palsy.
