Powered Mobility Training for Therapists

Introducing powered mobility to young children can change how they explore, learn and play. Kids+ powered mobility training gives therapists the frameworks and practical strategies to do it with confidence. You will learn online and face-to-face, and finish with a PD points certificate.

The training was co-designed with our Advisory Group, including people with lived experience, and is led by Kids+ Paediatric Physiotherapist Sara West and Paediatric Occupational Therapist Erin Hammond.
