For children
We consider the child, the activity and the surroundings together. Families and schools often ask about:
- Dressing and self-care routines
- Handwriting and classroom participation
- Sensory needs in daily life
- Purposeful play
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy focuses on the everyday activities a person needs and wants to do, and on what could make them more manageable.
For adults
After illness or injury, we start with what the person wants to do. Support may address:
- Washing, dressing and preparing meals
- Managing a household or a valued role
- Work-related activities
- Home routines and caregiver guidance
Where therapy happens
Occupational therapy is provided in home, school and community settings, and the setting is agreed with you. Recommendations depend on assessment and therapist availability.
What happens first?
A free consultation call helps us understand your concern and suggest the next assessment step. The call is not a clinical assessment.
Do I need to buy equipment first?
No. Please wait until the person's needs have been assessed before buying specialist equipment.
How is progress reviewed?
Reviews look at the agreed everyday activity and the support still needed, rather than comparing the person with others.
