How does your disability shape your role as a physiotherapist?

We asked members of @cspdisability how their experiences enhance their skills, what truly matters to them, and how workplaces can foster greater inclusivity.

Good luck to CSP member @AaronMJFowler who is playing for the England Visually Impaired Rugby Team today!

Aaron previously shared his inspirational story about pursing his passion for sport whilst being challenged by a disability.

This arrived through the letter box today - a great resource and something I wish I’d had a long time ago …..might also have a little mention in the acknowledgments #autisticparenting #autistic #actuallyautistic

[Pooky Knightsmith @PookyH]

MY NEW BOOK!

I’m having some pretty big feelings about this book.

It’s out next month. I hope it helps people. I had 100 neurodivergent co-authors and between us I think we’ve crafted something pretty special.

Please consider pre-ordering: https://t.co/0uDfywpGvF

A great thread 🧵 - as I have joined lots of dots during my #latediscovered journey - managing my #sensory needs has been integral to dampening down my nervous system responses and hence has had an impact on 👇my #anxiety #actuallyautistic

[Nicole Filippone, Autistic Advocate & Author @sensorystories_]

I wish more people knew about sensory anxiety (a thread)

[Mary Doherty 🏳️‍🌈 @AutisticDoctor]

Such an important paper from colleagues at @BSMSMedSchool @BruceTamilson @BendyBrain & @Autistic_Doc
Receiving an autism diagnosis was life-changing, deeply validating, allowed them to be their true authentic selves, improved mental health
Accurate diagnosis matters #AutismNotPD

Our response to the independent review of the NHS in England by Lord Darzi.

@RobYeldham, director of strategy, policy and engagement said:

'We strongly endorse the calls to expand healthcare in the community and to build care around the needs of the individual. Community rehab is key to this.

'As the report suggests, too many people face delayed access to care. The report highlights growing need for MSK services, impacting on people’s ability to work.

'The report is right to point to the impact of a broken NHS on the economy as well as patients. This landmark report provides a clear route towards rectifying this.

'Community rehab keeps people out of hospital and is essential at a time when more are living with multiple long-term conditions. The recognition of the growing challenge is very welcome.

'These are issues we have been calling for action over for many years. Acting on these findings would transform the NHS into a modern, responsive health service that is built around population need.

'But we need more physios, support workers and other rehab staff to deliver expanded services. So we also welcome the recognition of the pressures our members and other NHS workers face every day.

'As well as ensuring we have more and better-trained staff, the government must ensure the NHS does everything in its power to retain those it already has by addressing stress, workloads and supportive management.'

This is a great 🧵 outlining just what it means to an #ActuallyAutistic person to explore their passions/special interests . What is even better is when another person is prepared to take an interest and champion them too 👍

[Pooky Knightsmith @PookyH]

AUTISM

As an autistic person, one of the greatest joys in my life is exploring my special interests. These aren’t just hobbies—they’re a source of deep connection, passion, and calm. Let me share how these interests bring light to our world. 💫 #ActuallyAutistic #AutisticJoy
