An Occupational Therapy Australia member in the Northern Territory came up with an idea to promote the profession to a wider audience with the added possible benefit of sponsorship for their next conference or other PD events.

The idea was to set up a stall advertising OT with the use of promo products such as balloons (kids love balloons) and also to go through the store picking out everyday items that are readily available in Bunnings stores Australia wide and showing the customers what is out there to help them.

We as OT’s would offer informal education (not consultations) to customers on topics such as joint protection and energy conservation through demonstration of the products and inform customers of the various OT services available in Darwin.

If you would like to do something similar at your local Bunnings store please click here for a template proposal letter to send to your local Bunnings or contact us for a list of Bunnings items that you can display at the OT Week Bunnings stall.
