Dee Christie OBE, Chair of Trustees, Elizabeth Casson Trust, comments that, 

"The Trust is delighted to partner with CloserStill Media, the organiser of the Occupational Therapy Show, to bring the Elizabeth Casson Feature Zone to life at this year's OT Show. It's a unique opportunity to celebrate Elizabeth Casson's life and legacy, highlight how the charity she created continues to further our profession and showcase what occupational therapists are achieving with the support the Trust provides. So come and visit us at the Zone - we hope you'll be inspired to "BeMoreElizabeth" yourselves!"

Matt Govett, Event Director, the Occupational Therapy Show, added that, 

“We are thrilled to be working with the Elizabeth Casson Trust to bring this Feature Zone to life. It’s not only a chance to celebrate the incredible legacy of Dr Elizabeth Casson, but also an opportunity for today’s occupational therapists to see how her pioneering spirit is being carried forward. We believe this will be one of the most inspiring and talked-about areas of the show.”
