A year in summary
This is Physiopedia’s fourth annual report Covering the period of June 1, 2021 through May 31, 2022.
It is always good to take the time to look back over the year and reflect on what has been accomplished. We started this year with the hope of broadening our horizons to be more inclusive of other professions in support of interprofessional care and more responsive to our patients in support of patient-centered care. As we look back, it is good to see that we achieved our goals and more! 2022 was an amazing journey where we faced new opportunities, met new people, and expanded our team to include other professionals!
Our resilient team of volunteers continues to embrace remote working and as organisations around the world are learning the skills needed to adapt, our team is already way ahead. This can be seen in all the new and updated information that is shared with the global rehabilitation community. Physiopedia is the #1 rehabilitation resource in the world and ranked in the top #30 medical websites globally! There are now over 4,500 pages of content with around 2.8 million visitors each month, representing nearly every country in the world. Collectively, they view between 5-6 million pages each month and spend an average of 4 minutes on each page.
We continue to strengthen and build our relationships with content partners. This year we welcomed three new universities whose students embraced the concept of early-career publication and mastered website editing skills to produce high quality, evidence-based content!
As COVID restrictions lifted and the world began its journey back to normal, we are learning that the long term effects of COVID mean that for some normal will not be the same as before. We continue to educate and support and as more information becomes available our team continues to update pages with new information and resources.
The pandemic also widened the gap in the availability of student clinical placements. With the shift to online education and service provision we recognised the opportunity for unique remote placement experiences. In February we welcomed two students, who had the opportunity to explore clinical conditions and scenarios, learn how to edit an online platform, and develop their clinical reasoning and critical appraisal skills. In return they produced guidelines and our first patient facing content.
With travel restrictions finally lifted we took the opportunity to visit Uganda. We were delighted to meet with professional associations, universities and clinics across Uganda and learn more about the rehabilitation and related workforce needs in low-income countries as well introduce Physiopedia to professionals and communities.
In September we held our free online course Understanding Rehabilitation as a Health Strategy. There were over 10,000 registrants from 107 countries.
We also held two volunteer orientation courses in April and November, welcoming 38 new volunteers to the team. The course attracts a wide range of people internationally, which helps us develop our understanding of global rehabilitation needs.

Looking back, looking forward
The past year has seen the world enter into an extended period of instability and insecurity following the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the global food and energy crises. Multiple other localised conflicts and catastrophic events have compounded this. At the same time climate change and technological innovation continue to accelerate, pushing our society towards a radically different future, as political uncertainty and change remain our constant companions.
In this age in which volatility, uncertainty, and a prolonged sense of emergency have become the new normal, the Physiopedia team have continued to demonstrate extraordinary resilience and strength. Their ability to operate as a globally distributed team to deliver quality information and resources to help physiotherapy and rehabilitation professions succeed in their studies and professional practice is astounding. Despite the many challenges, this year has also seen us finally able to resume in-person engagements worldwide.
Rachael Lowe
The conflict in Ukraine has had a deep impact on us and our activities this year. As well as developing our annual MOOC, which focused on Understanding Rehabilitation as a Health Strategy we also developed a course in response to the war, that is equally as relevant to many other geographies, on Rehabilitation in Disaster and Conflict course. Both of these courses attracted over 10,000 registrants indicating a huge need and thirst for knowledge in these topics. Both courses were translated into Ukrainian. This was challenging and time sensitive work which provided an opportunity for our team to work with Ukrainian rehabilitation professionals and to make an important contribution to this ongoing crisis.
Co-Founder, Trustee & Chair
Rachael qualified as a physiotherapist in 1998 with a first class degree from Sheffield Hallam University. Before turning her attention to providing technology solutions for the physiotherapy profession she successfully founded a private musculoskeletal physiotherapy service in the UK.
Now, in a voluntary capacity, Rachael oversees the day to day activities at the Physiopedia charity. She is also cofounder and CEO of Physiopedia Plus, Physiopedia’s supporting online professional development platform.
Our work with ReLAB-HS has comprehensively investigated rehabilitation workforce development challenges worldwide, and explored these issues more deeply in our focus countries Ukraine, Pakistan, Uganda and Myanmar. The results of this exploratory work validated many of our perceptions regarding the common barriers to expanding and improving the rehabilitation workforce.
In 2022 we learned of professionals using their Physiopedia experiences to influence national policy, and we came to understand that Physiopedia can be used to offer career defining experiences and optimise health where access challenges exist.
As we look forward to the coming year we will maintain resilience, we will be strong, but most of all, we will support each other to build and deliver the world's best platforms and support our users in their studies and professional development through these uncertain and challenging times.

5 Annual Report 2021/22
“Physiopedia has helped me understand principles and concepts I thought were too complicated to learn. It is always my go-to resource to learn more and access research...” ~ Physiopedia user
Kim Jackson Physiopedia Manager
As Physiopedia Manager, Kim is responsible for ensuring the quality of the Physiopedia content and leading the volunteer team that create that content. Together they work to maintain high-quality and up-to-date rehabilitation information and make it available for all. She is committed to promoting global health through sharing rehabilitation knowledge and resources.
From the team
As we look back on the past 12 months, it is good to see that we have achieved our goals and more! It has been an amazing journey where we faced new opportunities, met new people, and expanded our team. We started by broadening our horizons to be more inclusive of all rehabilitation professions supporting a collaborative and interprofessional approach to health care and health systems.
June 2021 - This year started the creation of 33 pages, bringing the total number of Physiopedia content pages up to 4,058. With so many pages choosing a topic each month helps us to focus our efforts. The topic of the month (ToTM) for this month was to focus on creating and reviewing pages for the Assisted Technology Content Development Project led by Naomi O’Reilly. Our top contributor for June was Nicole Beamish and the final callout for nominations for the Physiopedia Annual awards were made.
July 2021 - This was a very busy month with lots of exciting things happening. The site was visited by 2,451,516 people from 241 countries who viewed 6,025,659 page views. July's TOTM was Neurology, led by Aminat. We heard that Tolulope, a member of the content team, was awarded the emerging scholar award for ageing and social change, his research was based on a topic he chose during an orientation course for volunteers in March 2020. We also learned how Physiopedia is helping not only rehabilitation professionals but also our future generation, one of our volunteers shared how Physiopedia was on the suggested resource list for her son’s school project on disaster management. The team also spent this month preparing for the launch of the Physiopedia free course Understanding Rehabilitation as a Health Strategy. On the website we added a link to the Rehabilitation Resource Repository, a new site that was created by Physiopedia as part of the ReLAB-HS activity and aims to make finding rehabilitation related PDF resources easier to find.
August 2021 - All Physiopedia activity is little quieter in August due to holiday season, but that didn’t stop the team from creating 36 new pages bringing the total content pages up to 4,165. We took this time to review our strategic plan and get feedback and ideas for how we can improve all that we do. This month saw the launch of a new content development project, Integrative Lifestyle Medicine, that looks at how lifestyle factors can influence health and well-being, with an emphasis on promoting lifestyle changes and healthier living through nutrition, physical activity, and disease management, many lifestyle-related diseases can be prevented. Our top contributor for August was Chelsea McLene.
September 2021 - The annual Physiopedia massive open online course (MOOC), this year delivered in collaboration with ReLAB-HS and titled Understanding Rehabilitation as a Health Strategy, started on 13 September. Over 10,000 people registered from 107 countries. This month we sadly saw some members leave the content team, we wish them well with their future endeavours, our team is down to 44 enthusiastic volunteers. Our top contributor for August was Daphne Xuan media team.
October 2021 - TOTM for October was Paediatrics led by Olajumoke Ogunleye. We celebrated more success for Tolulope who was our top contributor for October, he made it to the dot physio newsletter and to make it a hat trick Tolulope’s course was trending on Physiopedia Plus . As a team, we are making a difference, SimilarWeb ranked Physiopedia in the 30 top health & medicine websites.

From the team
November 2021 - Another busy month for the team. The second volunteer orientation course for the year started on 1 November. It was amazing, 90 volunteers registered and joined the course, with 30 of them completing to join the team. Whilst this was going on, the team still managed to focus on reviewing the Health and Wellbeing pages for TOTM. Thanks to the team and the volunteers on the orientation course, 83 new pages were created this month, taking the total number of content pages up to 4,282. Our top contributor for November was Lenie Jacobs from the media team.
December 2021 - I don’t know what it is about December, but we had another visit from Vatican City this year, taking the total number of countries that Google reports visiting Physiopedia to 243. As it is World AIDs day this month, the team chose to work on updating pages relating to HIV/AIDS. Our top contributor for December was Cindy JohnChu.
January 2022 - We had visitors from Antarctica to Zimbabwe, in fact people from 241 countries searched the Physiopedia content. The Physiopedia content is forever expanding, and this month we added information from the PT Knowledge Broker Project on the Resisted Exercise Initiative. The team also chose to review pages related to communicable diseases, perfect for flu season! Our first top contributor for 2022 was Tony Lowe, one of the founding team members of Physiopedia!
February 2022 - This was a busy month. Rachael and Tony, our co-founders, visited Uganda to meet the rehabilitation community and learn more about workforce needs. This was also the month we hosted our first remote student clinical placement. So many worries about how this would work, but it was a great success. Our students, Greg and Beth, were adaptable, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. Their work has set us on the road to considering the development of resources for people with physical rehabilitation needs. We also met Tony Varela and the students from the Arkansas College of Health Education School of Physiotherapy, they teamed up with Physiopedia for a content development project around the topic of musculoskeletal dysfunctions. As the Olympics are taking place, our team focused on content relating to winter sports injuries. Our top contributor for this month was Amanda Ager.
March 2022 - The team busily worked on symposium ideas for the 2023 World Physiotherapy Congress. And talking of physiotherapy, Daphne created a video on the “History of Physiotherapy”. This month, for TOTM the team decided to look at pages relating to genetic disorders. Our top contributor for this month was Kate-Lynn Downey.
April 2022 - An exciting month. We held the first volunteer orientation course of the year. This is an opportunity for the community to take part in a 3-week programme to master the editing skills needed to join the volunteer content team. It was so much fun! While the new volunteers were busy editing tutorials, the rest of the team was updating the orthopaedic trauma pages and the PT Knowledge Broker Achilles Tendinopathy Toolkit pages. We said hi to Yara, our first OT to activate an editing account on Physiopedia..
May 2022 - Business as usual with the team reviewing women’s health for TOTM. This month also saw the graduation of volunteers from the recent orientation course, we had 19 new members join the volunteer content team. And a big shout out to our top contributor, Laura Ritchie, who has been with the team since 2013.

There is no access to physiotherapy where I live. Physiopedia helped me find a way back to fitness following my leg injury. ~ Member of the health seeking public
What we do
Making meaningful impact for the global rehabilitation community
In order to satisfy it’s mission, the strategic plan highlights 6 key strategies that guide our activities:
Gather the sum of all physical rehabilitation knowledge and make this freely available to all.
Lead in providing educational opportunities to rehabilitation professionals throughout the world.
The Physiopedia website currently has over 4,000 pages of evidence-based useful and practical health related content that continues to be made freely available to everyone where ever they may be in the world.
Through our collaborations with universities and member organisations Physiopedia provided a platform that could easily be integrated into new and existing innovative education and training initiatives.
Reach and involve rehabilitation professionals throughout the world.
Improve health care and therefore make a positive contribution to global health.
As an open access online platform Physiopedia does not make any restrictions on who can visit the website. In this past year over 30,000,000 people from every country in the world visited the Physiopedia website.
As a nimble organisation Physiopedia has been able to quickly respond to world events, such as the war in Ukraine, with resources that contribute to knowledge acquisition and translation of that knowledge into improved health care provision.
Foster international collaboration to empower the global physiotherapy profession.
Promote the profession to the wider health care community and the public globally.
We collaborated with five universities and one member organisation to collbaoratively develop new and update existing content on the website, helping us to maintain and evolve the content of the Physiopedia knowledge resource.
As the result of a solid communications strategy, this year there has been an increase in website visitors that are not physiotherapists. This promotes the value of physical rehabilitation to others, including other health care professionals and the public.

Who we do it with
Making meaningful partnerships to positively impact global health
Physiopedia values, respects and encourages collaborative activities that contribute towards global health.
Integrating rehabilitation into health systems with John Hopkins University, University of Melbourne, Humanity and Inclusion, Momentum Wheels for Humanity and Miracle Feet.
As a key partner in the Learning, Acting and Building for Rehabilitation in Health Systems Consortium (ReLAB-HS) Physiopedia continues work to contribute towards integrating rehabilitation into health systems in Burma, Pakistan, Uganda and Ukraine. This activity seeks to co-design and implement innovative, comprehensive, cost-effective interventions that strengthen health systems for provision of rehabilitation across all levels of care.
The five-year program is working in a number of low- and middle income countries affected by conflict, with varying levels of rehabilitation needs and infrastructure. ReLAB-HS presents a genuine opportunity to provide real improvements in the quality of life, functionality and independence for many people through simple interventions at all levels of care to highlight the benefit of rehabilitation further in all health care settings. Physiopedia’s role as part of the ReLAB-HS consortium is focused on developing workforce capacity.
The ReLAB-HS workforce development activities seek to cost and time efficiently train more rehabilitation professionals and elevate standards of rehabilitation practice around the world. In order to build upon the many examples of rehabilitation workforce development already taking place around the world our activities are centred on coordination with all relevant stakeholders to share knowledge, practices, and resources via a suite of digital platforms that will offer online teaching, learning, mentoring and networking. These platforms will be innovative, accessible and inclusive to allow adoption by all rehabilitation professionals.
Tools and resources to facilitate the practicalities of workforce development will be created. This will include the development of an internationally relevant rehabilitation education and training toolkit that can be adopted by stakeholders and adapted to their particular profession and/or geographical and economic context. Online accredited courses will be created in collaboration with international topic specialists and made available for any stakeholder to integrate into their own teaching activities. Resources and support will be made available to facilitate the uptake of the toolkit by clinics and educators through the effective use of hybrid learning as an economically efficient workforce development strategy.

Physiopedia Company No. 08530802 Directors' Report For The Year Ended 31 May 2022
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2022.
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the surplus or deficit of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Directors
The directors who held office during the year were as follows: Ms Elaine Lonnemann Mr Antony Lowe Ms Brenda Myers Mrs Rachael Lowe
Small Company Rules
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to companies subject to the small companies regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

Physiopedia Accountant's Report For The Year Ended 31 May 2022
Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Physiopedia
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Physiopedia (the Company) for the year ended 31 May 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or the accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Physiopedia Notes to the Financial Statements For The Year Ended 31 May 2022
1. Accounting Policies
1.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the FRS 102 Section 1A Small Entities - The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
1.2. Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Sale of goods
Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point that the customer has signed for the delivery of the goods.
Rendering of services
Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably.
1.3. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Physiopedia
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Physiopedia (the Company) for the year ended 31 May 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
