Transcript and description

William Macy walks into a darkened room and stops besides a sign which is brightly lit. The brightly coloured sign is for Cerebral Palsy Awareness Week. The words, ‘William H. Macy, Goodwill Ambassador United Cerebral Palsy’, appear on the screen.

William Macy says:
During August I urge all Australians to support National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Week.
CP is a physical condition, which affects movement and in Australia a child is born with CP every eighteen hours.
To date there is no pre-birth test and no known cure.
