Celebrating One Year at Positive Steps and an Exciting New Chapter

Today marks a very special milestone for me — my one-year anniversary with Positive Steps Physiotherapy, as well as the beginning of an exciting new chapter in my career.

I first joined Positive Steps as a Physiotherapy Assistant, bringing with me a degree in Sports and Exercise Science, a Master’s degree in Clinical Exercise Physiology, and a Level 2 Personal Training qualification. I have always been passionate about health, rehabilitation, and helping people improve their physical wellbeing, so joining the Positive Steps team felt like the perfect opportunity to grow and develop within the profession.

Over the past year, I have been incredibly lucky to learn from such a knowledgeable and supportive team. Working closely with clinicians and supporting clients  throughout their journeys has only strengthened my passion for physiotherapy and working in neurology and peadiatrics but also confirmed that this is the career path I want to pursue.

I am incredibly grateful that Positive Steps gave me the opportunity to grow within my role, and I am very excited to share that this May, I officially started my Physiotherapy Degree Apprenticeship with the Positive Steps and the University of Derby.

This apprenticeship allows me to continue gaining valuable hands-on clinical experience while studying towards becoming a qualified physiotherapist. It is an amazing opportunity to continue learning, developing my skills, and building on the experience I have already gained at Positive Steps.

In three years’ time, I will be a fully qualified physiotherapist, and I am so excited for everything that lies ahead. I know there will be plenty to learn along the way, but I feel incredibly fortunate to be supported by such an encouraging team and organisation.

I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone at Positive Steps for believing in me and supporting my development over the last year. I am proud of how far I have come already and excited to continue my journey here.

Here’s to one amazing year at Positive Steps — and an exciting future ahead!
