Physiotherapy Society

This society aims to ensure physiotherapy students at the University of Essex have access to a variety of opportunities outside of our usual lectures. We hope to enhance the student experience by offering continuing professional development (CPD), mental health support, fun activities for de-stressing, and networking through the facilitation of events with the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy. We ultimately want students to get the most out of their physiotherapy experience at the University of Essex.
