BIBIC is a small national charity making a big difference.
We deliver assessments and bespoke developmental therapy to children and young adults aged 6 months to 25 years.
We see them with or without a diagnosis and support a wide range of difficulties, including conditions such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, global developmental delay (GDD), Down's syndrome, sensory processing difficulties, and many more.
What we do
- We treat every young person as the unique individual they are and follow a similar style for each assessment with variations depending on the difficulties they are experiencing.
- Assessments are delivered by a Bibic developmental therapist to identify strengths, weaknesses and difficulties.
- In response to these outcomes, a bespoke programme of support is designed to address the underlying causes of those difficulties.
- Our approach empowers the young person, parents, carers and teachers with therapeutic interventions and strategies, helping the child to overcome challenges so that life at home and school is more fun and rewarding.
- We recommend small, achievable changes and make a big difference. We explore all areas of the individual's development to unpick the foundation causes of their challenges and provide strategies to thrive.
