This week, Canberra Hand Therapy is proud to celebrate our 9th birthday! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽ‚

From humble beginnings as a small sole trader practice, weโ€™ve grown into a thriving, full-time clinicโ€”thanks to our dedicated team of skilled therapists and an exceptional admin crew who keep everything running smoothly.
But most importantly, thank YOUโ€”our wonderful patients, and the incredible specialists, surgeons, allied health professionals, and GPs who continue to place your trust in us. We wouldnโ€™t be here without you. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Hereโ€™s to nine amazing yearsโ€”and with double digits just around the corner, we might have to plan something extra special for next year! ๐Ÿฅณ

Also, a huge thanks to the amazing Wish Upon A Cake for this fabulous birthday treat of a cake! What an incredible job Sandra has done! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฉต

This week Canberra Hand Therapy have farewelled someone from our amazing admin team, Rebekah!

Bek has been with CHT since the early days, starting off as a receptionist and working her way up to Practice Manager, all while juggling a young family. She has been instrumental in setting up our administrative processes, training and overseeing staff, and of course greeting all of our patients at the front desk with her warm, welcoming smile.

Bek is off on a new career adventure and we wish her all the luck and enjoyment for her next chapter. We will miss you, Bek! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜Š

Over the weekend the Canberra Hand Therapy team gathered with their loved ones for a well-deserved mid-year celebration to recognise all the hard work our therapists and staff have put in over the first half of the year, as well as to acknowledge and biid a sad farewell to our incredible OT Laura, who has decided to move on to other things post-maternity leave.

We devoured some incredible food from The Merchant's Feast and made by our very own Liz in a beautiful picnic-style event where the CHT kids enjoyed playing on the playground and the whole team had some laughs with a few lawn games and even a friendly climbing competition!

Laura - we will miss your smiling face and gentle nature around here. However, we wish you all the happiness and luck in your next chapter!

Itโ€™s been a big start to 2025 and we have much more planned for the rest of the year, so stay tuned!
