Networks

Networks are an important way to get advice and support, broaden thinking, find inspiration, and enhance career opportunities.

We’ve pulled together primary care occupational therapy networks in the UK. These include networks across the whole UK, country, and patient specific networks.

The RCOT occupational therapy in primary care network includes monthly virtual meetings and email bulletins for members. By joining the network, you will be automatically invited to the meetings and added to email list. Please read the terms of reference before signing up by emailing practice.admin@rcot.co.uk with your RCOT membership number (begins with BT).
