A ground-breaking radiotherapy trial for adult brain cancer patients will take place at UCLH to see if proton beam therapy – where a high energy proton beam targets tumours very precisely – can minimise some of the side effects of standard radiotherapy. buff.ly/3wluXaF

Never underestimate the power a good hot shower can have for a patient - it can be so important in feeling 'normal' again when unwell. #OTHack #OTWeek22 #OccupationalTherapy

People often ask me what is Occupational therapy? Covid - 19 has taken away your occupations, your roles & your social identity. An occupation is not your job but everything you do from washing and dressing, going shopping, meeting friends, going for a coffee, going to the gym,
