Announcing CPN Café
Come to a café to meet likeminded critical physiotherapists
My favourite urbanist likes to say that communities need bumping places where you socialise with your neighbours. As we have been working to imagine the future of the Critical Physio Network, consensus was very clear about the importance of connection. A Network gets its life from its relationships.
Given we don’t have our own bumping place - or our hive - it’s time we make a digital one. We are calling these cafés.

We have scheduled four such gatherings to start, in June. Please come to one or all - and if not this month, these will be recurring.
The café is about conversation with others. You can introduce what brings to you critical physiotherapy and meet other likeminded folks in our community - which, if Substack subscriptions can be used as a metric, is over 1000 people!
At least one executive member will be present, and if there’s time, we will also discuss what activities you find most meaningful to help prioritize for the coming year. We heard lots of great ideas in one-on-one conversations in recent months, so we would like to learn more about you value most in the near term.
Among the executive, we have French, Portugese and Spanish speakers. One session will be led in French this month. If you would like to attend when the executive member who also speaks Portugese or Spanish is present, please email cpnexecutive@gmail.com and we will confirm which session(s) this month will work.
