Cross-divisional opportunities - Collaborate with case management services, care-in-the-home teams, and SLT colleagues across the wider Active Neuro network.

Peer support and professional community - Join a growing SLT network within Active Neuro, with opportunities for mentorship, cross-site collaboration, and shared learning.
Networking and partnerships - Engage with organisations such as Headway, the Spinal Injuries Association, and wider professional forums to influence and connect beyond your immediate team.
