OETT Trustee Meeting Goes Virtual

The Trustees usually meeting 3 times a year at Brewin Dolphin offices in London, however, due to COVID-19 and to keep our Trustees safe, we held our first virtual meeting on Monday 21st September 2020.  With very few technical glitches, it was a success!

Our plan for 2021 is to continue using GoToMeeting & hopefully if safe to do so, meet at Brewin Dolphin in London for our September meeting.

As always, thank you to our Trustees for giving up their time!

The Orthotic Education and Training Trust was originally set up by the Department of Health and the British Surgical Trades Association, in partnership with the British Institute of Surgical Technologists, to provide a private fund for the training and education of Orthotists. The income was substantially derived from a levy on orthotic device sales to the NHS. This levy ceased when the training of Orthotists progressed to degree courses funded directly by government within the state higher education system.

The Trustees now manage the investment income derived from the levy funds as its only source of income. Their focus currently is on postgraduate training and education. The object of the Trust as defined by its deed is to fund firstly, the education and training of orthotists, orthotic managers and technologists and secondly, the training of technicians concerning surgical and medical appliances and devices (i.e. orthotic devices).
