Collaboration: work closely with our wider Active Neuro network, sharing knowledge and connecting with colleagues across other specialist sites
Professional development: access tailored CPD and learning opportunities, plus external events with partners such as Headway and the Spinal Injuries Association
If you're an early-career Occupational Therapist with a passion for neurorehabilitation, we'd love to hear from you. Join a service that values creativity, curiosity, and meaningful outcomes - helping people rebuild their lives, one goal at a time.
