SPD Therapy Hub was established in 2005 to coordinate the recruitment, management, and professional development of a pool of allied health professionals to provide rehabilitation services in the community. We are a dedicated hub who will provide you with varied opportunities for clinical learning and practice in multiple settings, whether your passion is for paediatric or adult clients with disabilities, or the elderly who are receiving care in the community.
SPD Therapy Hub provides both formal and informal platforms for training and development in areas such as clinical practice, education, supervision, and research. Our therapists also play a part in aspirational work such as developing programmes, grooming the next generation of allied health professionals, and influencing rehabilitation standards of the community sector.
