Our first-ever Vlog comes from Kathy Roberts, a practicing Occupational Health Physiotherapist in the UK, and Honorary Clinical Academic Fellow at the University of Exeter. Kathy is particularly interested in education and research, and the role of physiotherapy in supporting workplace health. In this Vlog, she explores some of the overlaps and synergis between occupational health physiotherapy and environmental physiotherapy.

First ever vlog! This is great Kathy!
If you haven’t already joined it would be great to connect via the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy Environmental Physiotherapy Network – it is free and open to CSP registered UK Physios interested in this area – https://www.csp.org.uk/networks/environmental-network or email epnetwork@csp.org.uk 🙂
Was great to meet you in Adelaide Oct2025.
I think we have so much to reflect on in analysing the alignment between OccHealth and EnvPhysio.
The broader environment shapes and dictates a person’s function, both physically and mentally – this is the same conversation we have in occupational health every day.
I’ll be putting some more energy into this concept.
So lovely to have met you too Michelle. Huge overlap in our work and ambitions!
Hi Danielle, I have just joined the Environmental network – thanks for letting me know about it! Great way to spread the news. BW Kathy
