Great to see this recognition of the importance of accessible homes from the Scottish Government. #OccupationalTherapists play such a valuable role in this area.
For housing, the Scottish Government are proposing to spend 40% more in housing support which includes support for older and disabled people requiring adaptations to their homes allowing housing association tenants to live independently in their own homes for as long as possible.

Awww, my old stomping ground! I loved working in the community for all the same reasons as Clare. It's a privilege to work with people in their homes - the place where most of us feel our 'true' selves. 🏡#OTWeek24
To celebrate @theRCOT #NationalOTWeek Foundations OT intern, Daniel Chorley, interviewed Clare Haddy, an Occupational Therapist at the Royal Borough of Greenwich, about working in the community and adapting homes for better access.

I'm looking forward to presenting at this event alongside RCOT members. #OccupationalTherapists and our AHP colleagues have a vital role in supporting people to be discharged effectively and recover well in the community.
Learn from outstanding examples of changing culture and improve discharge practice #ReducingHospitalStays @nexusconsultirl @RCOT_Lauren @EmmaBrangwin @CamilleOung @poppitbirch @_ClaireC_

There's no finer example of the power of occupation than the brilliant people at @sportforconf. I'm so glad that colleagues from @DCMS were able to experience your life-changing work first hand. Happy #OTWeek24!
"The people who are here today come from all different parts of our local community" Having fun, making friends, and staying active is vital for leading a healthier, happier, life, as those involved in @ActiveEssex explain
