Mission Statement
South West ACPIN is committed to organising a comprehensive range of CPD and educational events for its members across the region. We also aim to provide networking opportunities, sharing of good practice and promote the specialism of neurophysiotherapy to other professionals, allied groups, service users and students. We aim to support events that help bridge the gap between research and clinical practice and give opportunities for members to promote their work. We will continue to work with others collaboratively which may include other specialist interest groups, CSP, neurological charities, local universities and rehabilitation providers. We strive to keep educational events subsidised for members whilst also promoting ACPIN’s work to students and non-members.
