About the Practice
When your child is under hospital care in Brighton, physiotherapy needs to join the medical plan and the movement goals at home. Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital Physiotherapy helps Brighton and Hove families understand what physical support their child needs and what can change at home, school, clinic or hospital. The focus is practical progress: better movement, safer confidence, clearer exercises and less fear around the next step.

Brighton Hospital Access: The Alex / Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital pathway options help families across Brighton, Hove, Portslade, Seaside View, Brighton General, the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital, Worthing, Lewes and Sussex choose a pathway that fits the child, the timetable and the level of clinical need.
