In a recent interview, Daniel Radcliffe talked about his experience of living with dyspraxia, sometimes dismissively called 'clumsy child syndrome'.
The condition, which results from a complex neurological disorder, causes problems with coordination and simple tasks. However, it is regularly misunderstood, and sufferers are often stigmatised as being lazy or clumsy.
Figures show that up to 10% of people in the UK show signs of the condition, with males being 4x as likely to be affected as females. New research out this year shows how problems can extend far beyond childhood. The Harry Potter star’s openness about the condition is helping thousands of sufferers gain more understanding and acceptance.
