Continuing the success of previous events, this year’s conference is aimed at professionals who are involved in supporting those who have suffered catastrophic injuries.

The full day programme, delivered by a range of expert speakers, will outline the importance of appropriate clinical and therapy services, in addition to other significant factors and prosthetic technology that can influence an individual’s ability to return to as near pre accident positon as possible.

Fit for life incorporates a return to family life, work, leisure/sports activities, and the potential for normal living. Individuals who have been through this process will share their first hand experiences, including the impact on their families.

Delegates will also have the opportunity to network and visit a variety of exhibitors stands including a range of patient models demonstrating the latest advances in prosthetic and orthotic technology.
