Happy OT week 💚 Here is to a truly varied, rewarding and wonderful profession!

OT Week 2025 is here!

This week, we’re celebrating the power of occupational therapy to help people stay well for longer and avoid crises – especially when they get the right support, at the right time.

To build a proactive, prevention-focused system, occupational therapy must be central to future planning and investment. Together, we can show how access to OT at the right time changes lives.

Here’s how to get involved:
• share stories that show how your service supports early intervention (tag us and use and )
• start local conversations with colleagues and leaders about how OT reduces pressure on services
• use the campaign messaging in your reports or meetings to highlight the value of prevention.

Let’s make this the biggest yet and shine a light on the incredible work OTs do every day. 💚

Mint tea sensory playdough fun! 🍃 🫖
We’ve been busy making playdough on the camping stove and creating some fantastic “feelings faces” out of green, minty dough. It’s been a favourite activity for building life skills, hand strength, and creativity, while creating a lovely space for emotions check-ins along the way! It smells amazing too! 💚

We love to build obstacle courses during our OT sessions as a fun and engaging activity to support essential developmental skills 🍃

This may include cones, tunnels, balance beams, jumps, we even take our inflatable hobby horses for a spin around them too! 🫧🏇

Obstacle courses help target a wide range of foundational skills, including:

1️⃣ Motor planning and sequencing
2️⃣ Balance and coordination
3️⃣ Core and upper body strength
4️⃣ Bilateral integration
5️⃣ Visual-motor skills
6️⃣ Sensory regulation and attention
