Project Report

By Awurabena Jones | Programs Manager

 

It is with deep gratitude and hope that we share the latest update on Titi, the courageous, now three-year-old girl at the heart of this project. Thanks to support recieved, Titi has begun to show gentle but promising progress on her developmental journey.

In the previous year, Titi required full support for even the most basic movements and struggled to respond to external stimuli. Today, we’re proud to report that she can hold herself up with support, a significant achievement that signals improvements in her muscle strength and motor coordination. This seemingly small step marks a huge stride forward in her journey toward independent mobility.

In addition to physical milestones, Titi is making progress in how she interacts with her surroundings. She now responds more consistently to sound—turning her head when her name is called or reacting to familiar voices and music. This responsiveness is an encouraging sign of cognitive and auditory development.

Titi has also begun to engage with simple visual cues, such as following a toy with her eyes or reaching out to touch colorful objects during sensory play sessions. These early signs of focus and intentional movement are key indicators that her visual and cognitive processing skills are strengthening.

These advancements have been made possible through consistent physiotherapy and speech therapy, delivered weekly by a dedicated team of specialists. Titi’s therapists remain optimistic that, with continued access to these services, she will begin to reach critical developmental milestones—including walking unaided and forming basic words.
