Interest in Physiotherapy particularly area of Neurology within Physiotherapy.
Bywgraffiad
Having completed my degree in Anatomical Science in 2007 I went straight on to complete the Physiotherapy undergraduate course at Cardiff University and qualified this year in 2010. Whilst studying Physiotherapy I completed 1000 hours of clinical placement in a broad range of clinical areas including the core Physiotherapy areas of Neurology, Respiratory and Musculoskeletal. Having completed the degree I went on to volunteer as a Physiotherapist working with the team at the Welsh Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation Centre at Rookwood before commencing my current role as Physical Activity Research Technician.

Interest in qualitative and quantitative research, while studying Physiotherapy course at Cardiff completed qualitative research regarding care assistant perceptions towards physical activity and mobility in the elderly residents they worked with.
Currently working on a project investigating whether a community supported exercise programme for people with Huntington$acirc; s disease benefits their feelings of well being, physical activity levels and abilities.
