As the third-largest clinical workforce within health and care, AHPs play a pivotal role in supporting the NHS Long-Term Plan. AHPs' Day is an annual occasion for AHPs in England and now internationally to unite and revel in their contribution.
BDA member and Dietitian Linda Hindle, Deputy Chief AHP Officer for England, has been awarded an OBE for services to public health in the Queen's Birthday Honours.
Following recent concerns by the Royal College of Nursing, the BDA joins other AHPs in rejecting the assertion that Allied Health Professionals (which includes dietitians) are being recruited as replacements for nurses.
PHE is offering free online training sessions to groups of healthcare professionals to support them in explaining the benefits of physical activity to patients.
