As part of our Minerva Lecture Series, we welcomed Erol Umut into school this week to deliver a careers talk to pupils.
Erol spoke of his career journey from university to becoming an Elite Sport Chartered Physiotherapist and owner of Kensington Physio and Sports Medicine. Pupils heard about different physiotherapy pathways and the vital role physiotherapy plays in women’s health.
Erol is a Chartered Physiotherapist and the Owner and Managing Director of Kensington Physio and Sports Medicine, based in West London. He also serves as Head of Medical at Bromley Football Club and consults with the medical departments of several Premier League football clubs. His extensive experience includes roles as Head Physiotherapist at Charlton Athletic Football Club and the Turkish football club Beşiktaş, as well as working in athlete rehabilitation with British Athletics and within martial arts.
The talk about physiotherapy was really interesting! It seems like a job where you get to really help people get back on their feet, which is really rewarding.Freya, Year 9 pupil
