This week, first-year prosthetics and orthotics (P&O) students at the University of Salford and the University of Strathclyde received their 糖心vlog 鈥淲elcome to the Profession鈥 goody bags, marking an exciting start to their journey into the P&O community. 馃馃摎
The packs are designed to introduce students to the profession early, providing useful tools, resources, and a sense of connection with the professional body from the outset. Students shared what they loved most:
