Challenging behaviour is causing increasing concern today as many individuals have increasing levels of stress and uncertainty in their lives. This behaviour can be due to factors such as anxiety, neglect, abuse, learning disabilities and conditions like dementia. Understanding the causes of challenging behaviour is the first step towards finding ways to support individuals and manage their behaviour. There are lots of reasons why someone’s behaviour might be challenging, anxiety, neglect, abuse, learning disabilities, dementia, to mention just a few.
