Thanks to Ottobock UK for coming down to lend a hand helping to fit the first Harmony P4 vacuum pump in the UK. The comfort and control this has given Darrell is bound to help get that golf handicap down even further.

Supporting the next generation of prosthetists and orthotists..... ProActive hosted an Open Evening for Students on 18th April 2018. Five students who had expressed an interest in a career in prosthetics, orthotics and associated industries and professions attended our Students Open Evening. The event included a tour of our clinic and manufacturing facilities, practical demonstrations and the opportunity to talk to members of our multi-disciplinary team. Jane Hunter (Prosthe...tist and Orthotist) and Christophe Cointet (Prosthetist) gave practical demonstrations on the manufacture and fitting of prosthetics and orthotics as well as some valuable insights into ‘a day in the life of” a prosthetist or orthotist. The students made the most of the opportunity to ask lots of questions. The evening was rounded up with more Q&A and a video presentation about the degree course in Prosthetics and Orthotics at Strathclyde University. The feedback from the event was excellent: ‘[ProActive] gave lots of information, showed different sides I hadn’t considered’ ‘Great insight to what both careers include and what day-to-day life would be like.’ ‘Jane and Christophe were very knowledgeable and helpful.’ ‘Allowed me to get an understanding of the process.’

Olivia Breen Commonwealth T38 Long Jump Champion. Olivia repeated her London 2017 victory over Australia’s Erin Cleaver in the T38 long jump. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/wales/43684800
Olivia had already clinched victory before producing a personal best and Games record of 4.86m in the final round. She beat Cleaver to gold at the World Para-athletics Championships in London by 20cm, and the victory was more conclusive this time around with a winning margin of half a metre.... The Guildford-born athlete contracted a meningitis-type illness at birth and was diagnosed with cerebral palsy aged two. Olivia said: “It is a dream come true. “After the Paralympics in Rio, Commonwealth Games was my aim and I have done it and I am so happy. “With the last jump I just went for it after three no-jumps and I hit it.” Olivia then went on to win her second medal of the games in the T38 100m. She made a good start to the race as the first three quickly got clear, keeping her composure through the second 50m and managed to secure the bronze medal (13.35sec). That made her the first athlete to win two medals in the track & field competitions.
Congratulations Olivia, from The Team at ProActive.

Strictly Come Dancing sent home Jonnie Peacock this week as the Paralympic champion became the eighth to depart the dance floor. Jonnie told host Tess Daly: "I think it’s been an absolute honour to be the first disabled person [on Strictly] and I want to thank each and every one of you for judging me as an equal." Of the judge's comments he said "That’s what I want. You’ve been critical with me and I want that criticism. I think that’s fantastic and hope it paves the way for ...more people to come through and I think they may be able to stick their bum under a bit better than me." "I need to say an absolutely gigantic thank you to this woman [Oti] for pushing me because she knows what I’m capable of. Her choreography has been has been outstanding, and for putting up with me - thank you so much.” His professional dancing partner, Oti added: "This has been one of the most life changing things that could ever happen to me. Jonnie is not only an inspiration but he represents so much more. If anybody wants to do anything, if you put your mind to it then you can achieve it and that’s what he represents."
