πŸ‰βš½ Helping sports coaches and staff recognise and respond to concussion in college sport.

This week, our Sports Medicine academics delivered a CPD session for staff at Cardinal Newman College, exploring how to identify and manage concussion in a sporting environment.

Through expert insight and practical activities, staff learned how to recognise concussion symptoms, make informed decisions following head injuries, and respond appropriately to support athlete safety and wellbeing.

A brilliant opportunity to share knowledge, strengthen best practice, and support safer participation in sport!
