SEPTEMBER 2016
THE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SHOW – THE PROFESSION’S EVENT For Occupational Therapists, this show is almost unprecedented in the amount of CPD that it offers. The education you can get at this show is really exciting and there’s something for everyone, no matter what field you work in. For me, it’s vital to keep up to date with new products and services, so the trade floor has been particularly useful. Mary Booth, Occupational Therapist, Specialist Advisor, CQC
As anticipation builds once again for The Occupational Therapy Show, there are many delights in store for all members of the occupational therapy team. With only weeks to go, the completely free event is full to bursting with motivational lectures, practical workshops and live demonstrations presented by speakers at the very forefront of occupational therapy. Among those headlining the exceptional educational programme will be: • Professor Carolyn Unsworth, Professor of Occupational Therapy, CQ University, Melbourne • Suzanne Rastrick, Chief AHP Officer, NHS England • Chapal Khasnabis, Project Manager, Global Cooperation on Assistive Technology (GATE) World Health Organization • Professor Gillian Leng, Deputy Chief Executive, NICE • Michael Mandelstam, Independent Legal Trainer and Consultant • Gaynor Sadlo, Professor of Occupational Science, University of Brighton • Jane Reynolds, Community Forensic Mental Health Practitioner, Northern Health and Social Care Trust • Avril Drummond, Professor of Healthcare Research and Occupational Therapist, University of Nottingham …to name but a few!
From L to R, Top row: Professor Carolyn Unsworth, Suzanne Rastrick, Chapal Khasnabis and Professor Gillian Leng. Bottom row: Michael Mandelstam, Gaynor Sadlo, Jane Reynolds and Avril Drummond

Education Partners
Hours of accredited CPD education will also be on offer throughout the two-day conferences dedicated to each area of the profession. What’s more, the extensive trade show will enable you to source great deals on all the cuttingedge products and services you need to enhance your daily practices and grow your business. Leading suppliers from across the industry will be in attendance including Invacare, AKW, Ottobock, Prism, Drive Medical, Seating Matters, Oxford Hoists, R82/Etac, Handicare and Sunrise. Also, look out for the on-stand exhibitor education where you can meet suppliers and gain CPD education all at the same time! In order to build on the success of previous years and continue to meet the evolving demands of such a fastpaced profession, The Occupational Therapy Show 2016 will offer a host of features for you and your team to enjoy.
NEW! Research In Practice education programme This series of seminars will provide an introduction to research in practice in occupational therapy. All the presentations have the strapline ‘All you need to know about…’ and will cover key issues in qualitative research, systematic reviews, becoming a researcher and translating research into clinical practice for Occupational Therapists (OTs). Chaired by Avril Drummond, her session will provide an introduction and general overview of research in occupational therapy. She will outline the current situation and suggest future directions. The importance of providing evidence to underpin practice will be underlined and significant trials presented in detail. The relevance of research to all occupational therapists will be highlighted.
PMG returns to The Occupational Therapy Show Posture & Mobility Group (PMG) are happy to confirm that we will be official supporters of The Occupational Therapy Show for the second year running. We had a great time at last year’s event, meeting lots of Occupational Therapists (OTs) working in various different fields; some of you may remember us as the exhibitors with the vegan chocolate buttons! Lots of lovely OTs became members of PMG for the first time at the show, picked up some of our print journal editions, and entered our postural management quiz (for a chance to win yet more chocolate!). If you have not heard of us before, PMG is a membership organisation and charity with the aim of sharing knowledge and promoting best practice in the field of posture and wheeled mobility. This year we have decided that rather than telling you what we are about, we’ll show you! We are, therefore, teaming up with our colleagues at the National Wheelchair Managers Forum (NWMF) to host a training event at the show. The event will include sessions about wheelchair and seating assessments, offering practical solutions to common clinical problems, to help you offer the best service to clients requiring a wheelchair and/ or special seating. It will be perfect for you, if: you refer clients to wheelchair services, are looking to work in, or have recently started working within posture and mobility. We are really looking forward to working with the team at The Occupational Therapy Show once again, and to meeting new OTs who want to get more involved in the field of posture and mobility! If you would like to find out more about PMG, and want to join the group for free to keep up-to-date with our activities, simply go to: www.pmguk.co.uk. You can also find out more about NWMF, by going to: www.wheelchairmanagers.nhs.uk.
