You'll also gain extensive clinical experience on a series of work-based placements in local NHS and private physiotherapy settings on the south coast.

Once you graduate, you'll be able to practise as an HCPC-registered physiotherapist (pending confirmation of HCPC approval), positively influencing daily life and aiding recovery for patients from every corner of society.
