UPDATE FROM CHAIRMAN

Well, Autumn has come in with a crash bang wallop for most of us, with high winds and heavy rain. I'd usually say "Well, the gardens need it" but I don't think I will!

With the darker nights and inclement weather, people are now beginning to wear enclosed footwear so the corns will be back with a vengeance. Make sure you have copies of the specialist footwear brochures like Cosyfeet, Wider Fit, Hotter and Sandpiper (to name but a few). They could change someone's life! I know because my postman picked up a copy of Wider Fit shoes from my front wall as I had surplus, and they have changed his sisters life - she is now walking with little pain and for longer. The beauty of having the correct footwear.

This website is intended to offer information and contact (and is under constant change and updates), but if you cannot find what you are looking for then please email me. 

There are 9 branches around the UK and they are working hard to provide members with informative and welcoming meetings. So, if you are a qualified practitioner treating foot problems (Chiropodist, Podiatrist or FHP), or a student in this field, then why not pop along to one of our meetings? They will be happy to welcome you - whoever you trained with. 

Being a member of a branch offers so much more than CPD. They also offer support, networking and friendship. They offer First Aid training, Autoclave servicing and sharps collections (selected branches only), and being a branch member enables you to be eligible to apply to the Benevolent Fund should you need to in an emergency (subject to certain criteria).
 

Dates and venues are listed on this site but please email me for branch contact details.

Please get in touch with us using the "contact us" link if you have any issues or queries. (Please note, I cannot recommend practitioners as I do not hold a list of those qualified, but I can point you in the right direction if you advise me of the area you are looking when you email).

Kindest regards,  

Deborah Mercer 

Chairman BCPA/BAFHP
