Access of children with cerebral palsy to the physical, social and attitudinal environment they need: a cross-sectional European study

In some regions, many environmental factors should and realistically could be changed. Legislation and regulation should be directed to making this happen. Local environmental planners and health and social service providers should listen carefully to parents to address mismatches between policy intentions and parental experience.
