Meetings The group meets every six weeks. On alternate dates the meeting is a joint meeting with the CSP's Physiotherapy HIV Clinical Interest Group. The aims of the meetings are:
We have regular attendees from acute care, rehabilitation, community teams and paediatrics. Meetings take place on Tuesday afternoons at 3pm. Meetings are held in London as this is where the critical mass of therapists work however minutes and workstreams are shared with therapists across the UK. We welcome interested therapists working in an appropriate area to these meetings however we ask that you contact the group first to discuss, not the least because the dates and venues below are subject to change at short notice. Minutes of meetings can be found in the archives section. Meeting schedule for 2007
Meeting schedule for 2006
Meeting schedule for 2005
Study days We have run study days in 2002, 2004 and 2006. Following feedback from the 2004 day we re-designed the day to become two separate days, one a teaching-style day aimed at therapists are new to the practice area or who do not specialise in the area, one a networking and best practice day for experienced/specialist therapists. Both were well attended and we had very good feedback. Reports from the 2006 study dates are online here. No dates have been set but the group is likely to consider running days of a similar format in 2008. Check back in late 2007 for more news.
