How we started
Occupational Therapy Susnet started life in 2009 when Tamara Rayment, an occupational therapist who had seen what CSH were doing to create a community of people and practice in Green Nephrology, approached CSH wanting to do the same in occupational therapy. Ben Whittaker joined her later that year and they created an active network.
Network Co-leads Ben Whittaker, Annymn Adams, Camilla Cox, Catherine Richards, Helena D'Mello, Jacqueline Gordon, Joel Reynolds, Ka Yan Hess, Louise Weissel, Marty Climenhaga, Pete Vesey
