At Liverpool Occupational Therapy Services, we provide thorough, tailored assessments for your child – at home or at school. We’ll work with you to choose the environment that best suits your child’s needs, and we can offer after-school or Saturday appointments on request.

We assess a wide range of areas, including:
✅ Developmental Coordination Disorder (D.C.D) and Dyspraxia
✅ Sensory Processing Difficulties
✅ Autism, ADHD, and Cerebral Palsy
✅ Neurological or genetic disorders
✅ Handwriting, perceptual, and emotional regulation difficulties

After the assessment, we provide a comprehensive report with personalised recommendations. The report is shared within 10 working days, and our Occupational Therapist will discuss it with you over the phone or virtually for up to 30 minutes 💙

This week we’re celebrating Ashleigh, who has successfully completed her annual mandatory training.

At Liverpool Occupational Therapy Services, every member of our team completes comprehensive, up-to-date training each year in Safeguarding, Sexual Harassment, Manual Handling, and Health & Safety.
This ensures we continue to offer safe, informed and high-quality support for the children, families and schools we work with 💚

We’re looking forward to joining the Kidz to Adultz Exhibitions North on the 3rd December, where our Specialist Occupational Therapist Kerry will be delivering her talk, 'Sensory Success: Practical Strategies for Supporting Children in the Classroom' at 2pm.

Kerry will explore:
• How the eight sensory systems impact learning
• The “filtering out” process and why it matters
• Practical strategies that genuinely work in the classroom
• Ways to create more inclusive, sensory-friendly school environments

The session will be packed with evidence-informed approaches that teachers, SENCOs and professionals can apply straight away.

You’ll also find members of our team, Clare, Kerry and Ashleigh, at Stand C2A, where we’ll be showcasing the range of Occupational Therapy services we offer across Liverpool, Sefton and Knowsley.

Whether you’re looking for Service Level Agreements, assessments, interventions or staff training, our team will be available throughout the day to answer questions and share resources.

We look forward to meeting you there 💚

From getting dressed in the morning to helping prepare a snack, everyday tasks are full of opportunities for children to build confidence, coordination and independence 💚

Our Occupational Therapists support children to develop practical life skills like dressing, cooking and self-care. These activities help children strengthen motor skills, improve problem-solving and feel more confident in managing daily routines, both in and outside of school.

By focusing on what’s meaningful to each child, we help them achieve goals that make a real difference in their everyday life.

Our Wednesday Win this week comes from Kerry 🎉

This week, she has supported one young person who was not previously able to control the direction of his pencil, to be able to draw a fabulous picture of two people celebrating with their arms up 👐

This young person has also left his weekly intervention session being able to confidently fasten and unfasten buttons, which will hopefully open lots of doors for him with regards to his independence, self care and choice of clothing 🧥

This week, we’re celebrating a very special member of the team.

Ashleigh has returned to Liverpool Occupational Therapy Services after completing her final Year 2 placement as an Apprentice Occupational Therapist and we couldn’t be prouder to have her back with us.

Ashleigh is also celebrating her 7th anniversary as an Occupational Therapy Assistant. She started her journey in Manchester and then joined us last year.

Ashleigh is exceptionally experienced and brings ao much knowledge to the team (and lots of humour) .

We’re so proud of everything she’s achieved so far, and excited to see her continue her OT journey here at LOTS.

Here’s to the next chapter, Ashleigh 🌟

We know that at school children learn more than what’s on the curriculum; they’re building confidence, focus, friendships, and independence.

Some pupils just need a little extra support to thrive. That’s where Occupational Therapy makes a real difference - helping children feel calm, capable, and ready to learn every day.

From sensory strategies to handwriting support and teacher training, we work with schools to make classrooms more inclusive and empowering for every child.

Headteachers and SENCOs across Liverpool, Sefton, Knowsley, and St Helens - now’s the perfect time to plan ahead for 2026.

Today we celebrate the power of kindness – the little actions that make a big difference. For children and young people, kindness can boost confidence, support emotional wellbeing, and help them feel valued and included.

We see kindness in action every day; whether it’s a child supporting a peer in school, or our staff going the extra mile for each other 💙

We gave each of our staff members a small gift to show them a little kindness when they came into work this morning.

Kindness matters, and today is a great reminder to celebrate it and share it with children, families, and colleagues 💚
