Communities and Project Impact:
This project will enable students to share their knowledge and expertise with sport players and athletes who may not otherwise receive specially tailored sports, exercise and health plans to improve their performance. Students will be mentored by local staff during each placement, to ensure that the host and students get the most out of the placement.
The skills and knowledge exchange between the visiting students and local staff also promotes informal and formal learning and training opportunities locally, which improves internal best practice and the long term success of the therapies provided.
