Aisling Condon and Helen Taylor from the Carbon Literacy Project, give an introduction to Carbon Literacy in healthcare and for AHPs specifically. The presentation aims to increase awareness and understanding of what Carbon Literacy means and the environmental impact we have as healthcare professionals, and ideas on how we can begin to reduce this impact.

She became involved in sustainability after completing the Carbon Literacy for healthcare training in 2021 and has since created the Physiotherapy specific Carbon Literacy training course, which she now teaches to therapists around the world.

Helen has experience within the healthcare sector, working as a critical care nurse, predominantly in the field of neurology and neurosurgery.
