🎨 Happy #WorldArtDay! At REMAP, we're passionate about helping disabled people rediscover hobbies they love — just like we did for 9-year-old Joseph, who has cerebral palsy and limited functioning of his upper limbs, by designing custom equipment to help him create more freely.

💜 For #FNDAwarenessDayUK, we’re resharing this video of Kat, a talented musician. Kat was having trouble holding her trombone after falling ill with FND, so one of our engineers custom made her a trombone support. #FND #FNDAwareness #FunctionalNeurologicalDisorder #Disability

Tracey's cane was painful on her wrists when she walked Ozzie. 🐾 So, Phil from REMAP modified her cane by adding a spring unit, to cushion the vibrations. Tracey could now enjoy walking Ozzie, and nicknamed her new cane “the tigger stick” for its springy feel. ✨ #Throwback

Well done @lauraingham1 for this excellent collaborative work & publication. Essential reading for any OT teams developing services in primary care 💚 @theRCOT
A scoping review mapped how occupational therapists evaluate the outcomes of their services in primary care - an area that remains under researched- and explores how these evaluation methods align with the principles of value-based healthcare👇 ow.ly/2YCs50UKBhh #JBIEBHC

A visually impaired client wanted to cook independently on her hob. So, a REMAP engineer designed a custom fibreglass cover with raised edges and tactile guides, allowing her to cook safely and without assistance. 🍳 👉 Find out more: remap.org.uk/stories/making-… #Accessibility

Umm UK Government, do just a tiny bit more research and you'll discover the Occupational Therapy profession that supports people to go back to the occupations they need and want to do including work. We work in mental health and on mental health wards already. Not enough of us
"Job coaches will visit seriously ill patients on mental health wards to try to get them back to work, the government has said". What the... 😳 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c98y…

Occupation is our unique contribution as OTs. However, many of us struggle with confidence, articulation and application of occupation-centred practice. Our 'Complexity of Occupation’ lecture series aims to address these challenges head-on: loom.ly/oXOGE44 📖

💡 Our client wanted to cut his own sandwiches, however he only has the use of one hand which made using knives too dangerous. After several designs, REMAP engineered this one-handed sandwich cutter, so he is now able to make his own lunch! 🥪 👉 remap.org.uk/how-we-can-help…

Ethan found holding a pen hard due to limited joint movement. So his mum, Laura, reached out to REMAP, and our volunteer Peter designed a custom pen holder for him! This lovely video shows Ethan trying the prototype as Laura encourages him! 💖🖼️ 👉 remap.org.uk/how-we-can-help… #TBT
