Transforming lives and building independence for Occupational Therapy Week 2025 | Westmorland and Furness Council Occupational Therapy Week runs from 3rd to 9th November 2025, celebrating the vital role that occupational therapists (OTs) play across health, social care and wider society.

This year’s theme, “Right Support, Right Time: Unlocking the Power of OT,” puts a spotlight on the importance of prevention-focused care, helping people stay well and independent for longer, and reducing the need for crisis interventions.

It’s OT Week 2025! We’re celebrating the power of OT to help people stay well for longer and avoid crises – especially when they get the right support, at the right time.

OT must be central to planning and investment, for a prevention-focused system.
