The large numbers of people working in the Department can give the impression that waiting lists should not be a problem. Most of these people are, however, part-time. Some work for us only a half day per week. Dawley Centre, for example, receives up to 100 referrals a month to only 6 therapists. Please check waiting times if you are considering referring yourself or a client to the Department.

Thank you.
