The OT World Podcast

We have the wonderful Beth and Kim on the show today. They tell us all about their role emerging placement on a Care Farm, and how they were able to use OT based tools to have a positive impact on their service users . This in turn enabled them to re- engage with everyday activities. This then led to a positive increase in their health and well-being! Brilliant share of knowledge and skills, and more on why and how OT works!!!

Thank you again to Sue Parkinson for all of your help!
