A Physiotherapist with a background in Healthcare Communications. I have an interest in technology and online communication in the Physiotherapy Profession, in particular in improving access to research evidence for Physiotherapists. I studied for my pre-registration MSc Physiotherapy at the University of Southampton, UK, before starting my Physiotherapy career, which has seen me in private practice working with patients with neurological problems, in NHS musculoskeletal outpatients, and as a Clinical Specialist Physiotherapist working in Neurology Outpatients for East Cheshire NHS Trust in Macclesfield, UK. Alongside my studies and working life, I have volunteered for the Physiopedia charity for 8 years, working on content development and quality, communications, and evidence-based resources. My current role at Physiopedia involves developing evidence-based email update resources for Physiotherapists and managing online Communications. I love all things outdoors, and when not working can be found out somewhere in the hills. | |||
