It's almost a year since I started digging the big pond, now building a bridge and just starting to see my little woodland garden emerging from the sea of gravel it was 3 years ago. Value of occupation.

Attended a workshop run by two of my amazing cohort last week. Making sensory spiders! This is my calming sensory spider, an extremely informative and valuable session. @SunderlandOT

Helping first year's to navigate the University. Lovely morning and good luck with your studies. @SunderlandOT

New occupation for today, digging out a new pond for all my wildlife buddies ❤️

As an Introvert I'd like to pass on a positive post for anyone struggling with confidence as a student. I came to learn on my first Occupational Therapy placement that it was actually a positive in terms of my listening and problem solving skills, it was okay to be me! ❤️

Whenever I've felt low in self-confidence I think back to something an OT told me on my 1st placement. She said you don't need to be loud and extroverted to be a great OT - you just need to be able to communicate when you need to. It's so true! #OccupationalTherapy

@charleastickOT Love it

I made myself a crochet Occupational Therapy doll the other week and couldn’t be more happy with it! Maybe it’ll serve as a mascot for the next two years of uni🤣💚

@emban13 @SunderlandOT Great news! 🎉

I am over the moon that I have been offered a development band 5/6 role as a children's occupational therapist already to start once I qualify!! I am in total shock and so excited!! @SunderlandOT

@charleastickOT @SeedTalks @sophiecowleyOT @emma_russell42 I'm pleased you enjoyed it Charlotte xx

Fantastic evening last night listening to Tom Nicholson at @SeedTalks with @sophiecowleyOT & @emma_russell42 💡Sharing the science of ADHD and Tom’s personal journey growing up neurodiverse 🧠 #studentOT #OccupationalTherapy #adhdtalk #adhd #scienceofadhd

@charleastickOT @SunderlandOT I'd love to be able to do this! Fantastic

A little something I’ve been working on to maintain #occupationalbalance while working on uni assignments 🤗🧶 #crochet #grannysquare #grannysquarecardigan #handmade #OTstudent @SunderlandOT

First time helping to run an activity group as a Wellbeing Champion at the university, met some lovely people and got to put what I have learnt so far into practice. #sunderlandOT

What a beautiful day! Spent a good two hours in the garden getting it ready for Spring, cleaned out the dead leaves from the pond, then sat and had a coffee watching the birds. Feeling very relaxed.

Great afternoon spent with fellow Health students, learning about inter-professional education. #IPESunderland #WeAreSun

@charleastickOT @SunderlandOT I hope you are alright? Xx

Struggling to breathe from Covid, but found a little energy to make this Occupational Therapy Christmas message this afternoon💚 #occupationaltherapy #OTreindeer #OTstudent #MerryChristmas #greens @SunderlandOT
