LOCAL STUDY DAY & WORKSHOP - Hillcrest in Exminster

This event will be happening at New Leaf Vocational Rehab Services in Exminster on the 26th June. It's a great facility which supports people with mental health and learning disabilities to learn valuable skills on their journey into paid and voluntary employment.
 
It’s a lovely location and the staff are mostly OTAs who are passionate about what they do. Homemade cakes and an opportunity to network at the end of the day make it a really unique CPD event. For more information please visit http://www.cot.co.uk/event/vocational-rehab-new-leaf

Being a BAOT Regional Committee member helps you keep in touch with what is going on nationally and locally in occupational therapy. It's a great networking opportunity through which you can meet other OTs from around the region working in a diverse range of roles.

 
By being an active member of the BAOT Regional Committee you are helping to give occupational therapy a strong professional identity. BAOT/COT does an important job supporting occupational therapists. Active members provide a crucial link between local members and the national organisation and ensure that COT is truly representative and responsive to its members’ needs.
