Jo Godley

Lecturer - Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy

I am lecturer within the musculoskeletal speciality while also contributing to other modules including scientific enquiry.

Biography

I joined the University in 2022 having enjoyed a varied career in the NHS that has included community work, stroke rehab, learning disabilities and most recently specialising in musculoskeletal physiotherapy with a special interest in acupuncture.

I particularly enjoyed supporting our junior staff and students on rotation/placement, therefore teaching has been a logical progression.
