The Physiotherapy department boasts 4 Chartered Physiotherapists and several Physio Assistants. We are a rapidly developing, progressive team working to provide individualised physical programmes for students at every level.

The Physiotherapy service offers a variety of treatments and programmes from formal sessions to “drop-ins” and hydrotherapy to cycling and archery. With two large rooms and a wide range of equipment, from the conventional electro-therapy machines, gait trainer, standing frames and mats, to the more unusual balance saddle and pro-trainer, we can ensure that everyone is not only catered for but challenged to have a go at new, innovative sessions.Our learners have a choice and can take ownership in their programmes as they work with experienced therapists on developing their own physical programme either in college hours or in their free time, in the department or their accommodation.
