World Physical Therapy Day
There is now just over one month left to plan your activities to celebrate World Physical Therapy Day 2015. This year the theme is “Fulfilling potential”, emphasising physical therapists’ role in supporting people with long-term health conditions or disabilities achieve their goals, fulfil their potential and participate fully in society.
 
Posters, flyers and postcards with this year's theme are available for download from the toolkit page: www.wcpt.org/wptday-toolkit. From here you can also access a resources booklet with a list of facts and resources about physical therapy, independence and participation, as well as an article by the WCPT President (found in the resources booklet).
 
The posters, flyer and postcard are also available in Spanish at: www.wcpt.org/wptday-posters-spanish. 
 
Remember to send us a brief report and photographs of how you celebrated the day to info@wcpt.org.
