May 2011
A big thank you to all the speakers and everyone involved in supporting the running of Sussex ACPIN to date. We were delighted to welcome a number of new committee members towards the end of 2010.
We have had a mixture of study days and evening lectures and our 2010/2011 programme has been well attended thus far. Here’s a quick recap:
In September I was very excited to present a Study day on Understanding and Treating Pusher Behaviour. This was well received and attracted non acpin members as well as therapists out of the Sussex area.
In October Diana Drawbridge and Clare Hall our committee members presented an evening feedback session on the highlights from Fit for life – Neurology and Exercise from 2010s Conference. This was a great opportunity for local members that didn’t manage to attend conference this year.
In November we were thrilled to have Professor Anne Ashburn and Dr Emma Stack from Southampton University to present an interactive workshop on Falls and Instability in People with Parkinson’s Disease and Stroke. This also included discussions about their current research.
For our AGM in March 2011 we welcomed Nicky Penny and Lesley Barnes to present an interactive and fresh look on the Assessment and Treatment of the Upper Quadrant and the role of musculoskeletal techniques. This also included patient demonstrations.
Our plans for the summer months ahead include:
An evening lecture on the Assessment and treatment of neglect and a two day study weekend on Dynamic movement screening and functional exercise with Bob Wood MCSP
In order to keep up to date with this year’s programme, venues and speakers we will be providing updated information here and at iCSP.
As always your thoughts and ideas are important to us. Please feel free to contact myself or any of the committee members to share your ideas.
