Last week our Patron, HRH The Princess Royal, visited Montpellier Therapeutic Allotments in Gloucester: loom.ly/DpdYkeg
🌱 The allotment at the Montpellier Unit, part of @GlosHealthNHS, is used to help people with mental health conditions on their road to recovery.
It’s time to show the world the true power of what we do! 🌍🙌🏽🙌🏿🙌🏻
We want people everywhere to value the life-changing power of occupational therapy.
#NewRCOT
Thank you to @MichaelRosenYes for mentioning Emma, your occupational therapist, on @GMB during #OTWeek2021. We're glad to see you recovering and delighted occupational therapy helped you through. Well done Emma. 👏🏽👏🏻
#OTsForEquity
We are deeply saddened to hear of the death of Vivek Sharma, a respected occupational therapist and valued member of RCOT. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues during this difficult time.
As a profession, occupational therapists are on the frontline of health equity and are uniquely placed to understand and tackle the challenges people face.
This week let's celebrate what you already do, and show the world what more can be done. #OTsForEquity#OTWeek2021
"A membership body is only as strong as the sum of its members and my priority will be to promote equity and justice to ensure every member of RCOT feels heard and represented."

Occupational therapists have a vital role to play in rehabilitation and dealing with the impact of #COVID19. We’ve created a new #rehabilitation section on our website where you’ll find key resources & guidance and see how we’re promoting rehabilitation. rcot.co.uk/practice-resou…
Occupations are essential to living. They give our lives meaning, purpose and structure. 💚
This #OTWeek23, help us show people everywhere what occupations, in the context of occupational therapy, are and why they are so important!
