National Foot Drop Awareness Day 2025
“This device is going to help me in so many ways and I am excited to see what the future holds!”
PhysioFunction hosted a highly successful National Foot Drop Awareness Day Event in Northampton.
Throughout the day, PhysioFunction offered foot drop assessments, allowing attendees to try out the Turbomed Xtern and Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) devices. The results were nothing short of incredible as participants experienced a significant improvement in their ability to walk unaided, leading to increased confidence and independence.
Jon Graham, Clinical Director at PhysioFunction commented “It was a unique opportunity for individuals to have access to highly specialist physiotherapists to find a solution for their foot drop.”
National Foot Drop Awareness Day 2024
On 20th September 2024, people and charities around the world came together to help raise awareness for National Foot Drop Day, a day dedicated to promoting understanding and offering support for individuals affected by this often-overlooked condition.
Organisations and charities hosted various events to commemorate National Foot Drop Awareness Day 2024. These events include virtual seminars with leading neurologists and orthopaedic specialists, interactive physical therapy sessions, and personal stories shared by those living with foot drop. This year's theme, "Stepping Forward," aimed to shed light on the challenges faced by those with foot drop and emphasise the importance of early diagnosis along with innovative treatments.
"By coming together on National Foot Drop Awareness Day, we can make a significant impact on the lives of those affected by this condition," said Jon Graham founder of National Foot Drop Awareness Society. "Through education, advocacy, and community support, we hope to improve the quality of life for individuals with foot drop and their families. We invite everyone to participate in National Foot Drop Awareness Day 2024 and join us in "Stepping Forward" to build a more informed and compassionate society.”
