My name is Andrew Brereton and I am an independent rehabilitation consultant. The name of my consultancy is 'Snowdrop,' because Snowdrops traditionally sybolise 'hope through adversity,' - a situation many of us are familiar with! I provide programmes of developmental stimulation for children and adults who have neuro-developmental disabilities such as cerebral palsy, autism, ADHD, dyspraxia, learning difficulties and many more. Programmes of developmental therapy are tailored to cater for each child's individual needs and are carried out in your own home by family and friends. Parents or carers who enrol a child or adult onto one of my programmes learn how to improve the developmental prospects of the individual in a logical and sensible way.
I have 22 years experience in the field of developmental disabilities, initially as a parent of a little boy with profound brain - injuries and later as both a researcher and therapist. My qualifications are as follows: -
BA (Hons). Based in psychology, child development and children with special educational needs.
PG Cert. Professional Studies in Education.
PG Cert. Social Science.
PG Dip. Language and Communication Impairments in Children
MSc. Based in Cognitive Neuropsychology and Child Development.
My professional affiliations are as follows. -
Member of the British Institute of Learning Disabilities.
Member of the British Institute of Childhood Disability.
Parents bring their children to see me not only from all over the UK, but from all over the world. Children are benefiting from my programme from all over the world, from countries as far afield as New Zealand, Australia, India, South Africa, USA and Brazil. If you want reassurance of this, just talk to them, - it can be arranged.
