Such a great day, and such a great privilege and honour to be with Joanna Eastough and training physiotherapists UBSportExR #BirminghamUniversity yesterday, being involved in helping physios interested in working with people living with #Parkinsons
A huge thank you, and well done…
I've just had the best day. I love being a physio, but being able to share my passion and pass on my knowledge to the next generation of UBSportExR physios with brilliant support from my #Parkinsons friends today was an absolute joy. The students did themselves proud 👏
