What we do

The Erb’s Palsy Group is the only UK based organisation offering advice, information and support to families affected by Erb’s Palsy. Erb's Palsy also known as Brachial Plexus Paralysis is a condition which mainly due to birth trauma, can affect 1 or all of the 5 primary nerves that supply the movement and feeling to an arm. Each baby's injury is individual. The paralysis can be partial or complete; the damage to each nerve can range from bruising to tearing. Some babies recover on their own however some may require specialist intervention.
