Vision and mission

After consultation in February 2004 CSP Council agreed the following, new vision and mission for the Society:

Our vision

The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy seeks to ensure that all those working in physiotherapy are:

  • recognised for their essential contribution to the well-being of patients and the general public
  • respected for their expertise, high clinical standards and evidence-based practice
  • rewarded for their skills and innovative approach to patient focused care.

In summary: physiotherapy: recognised, respected, rewarded for its essential contribution to health and social care.

Our mission

The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy is a progressive, dynamic, member-centred organisation that aims to:

  • lead and support all members in developing and promoting high quality innovative patient care
  • protect and further advance the interests and working lives of our members
  • raise the profile of the profession and influence the health care agenda
  • work openly in partnership to meet the diverse needs of both our members and their patients.
