Beautiful sunny day for #SafetyWeek at @LEGOLANDWindsor! Today’s focus: reporting — and I had to practice what we preach after a minor trip (graceful it was not 😅). Huge thanks to our H&S & First Aid stars. Bonus: cuddles with PAT dogs Molly, Sheba & Freddie! 🐾 #WeCare

Meet Natalie, our Band 6 OT from Aldgate and Moorgate Ward in JHC!

'Health by stealth' says Improvement Adviser @AnujDawar15.

'When we do something that's really meaningful to us, it helps us to achieve a state of flow, which allows us to achieve our true mental and physical potential. This can lead to a permanent lasting impact.'

How do we as a profession own occupations as our super power?

'The roles we play are so important to our self-esteem. Being able to help someone to be the person they see themselves as is a super power' says Occupational Therapy Student @RochelleBarreOT.

'It’s so important to have meaningful activities that are catered to you' says Mental Health Occupational Therapist Jenny Okolo, at our #OTweek23 Breaking barriers event.

Jenny also highlights that occupations don't stay the same, they evolve as we evolve as individuals.
